I think ops people pay too little attention do the domain name mess (and other higher-than level 3 messes). The mess is precisely due to the fact that the development was allowed to be hijacked by a band of idiots and demagogues. Compare that to the development of classless routing and the renumbering issue -- there the same induhviduals faced quite strong opposition from ops people and so the right thing was accomplished. I have nothing against keeping the sicko politikos waving their dicks in public to see whose's bigger out of NANOG list. But i think the issue of domain service in US is entirely within scope of interests of ISPs and other northern american network operators. Users _do not_ care about OSI levels. Broken domain registration _is_ an operational issue. And it is not the first time the activities of network operators have legal repercussions. My crystal ball says that in the end it will be ISPs who will be cleaning up the domain mess. They're the only people out there who have serious vested interests in keeping Internet running. --vadim PS And don't start me ranting on application-level stuff. In most areas it's worse than sicko domain name mess. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
