I'll register DNS.sucks The whole idea of unique human-readable names is broken (I would go as far as to say that the idea of any global name space is silly :) Note that the "address space" and "name space" are different because addresses cannot be arbitrarily allocated, and therefore cannot be contentious. The only real solutiuon to the present and future DNS woes is to replace it with the hyperlinks, portals, address books and search engines - and _no_ human-readable names. This effectively creates as many "roots" as there are users. My "John Doe" is not the same as your "John Doe" :) --vadim PS I know, I know, it is politically impossible to abolish DNS wholesale. Any progress is politically impossible.
