I abandoned them a long time ago, but the big question is, how can we get rid of them as root servers operators? Sounds like time to push for more independent servers, and a truly separate company to handle the root server portion of .com/.net. They could still exist as a registrar, but with these kind of business practices, how long? Probably not very, so I'd expect them to fight it tooth and nail. Or abandon .com/.net entirely, but that would take a long time and a massive public-education campaign. See what happens to them when everyone refuses to use either .com or .net. I still use them, by way of OpenSRS, but that could be solved with some new registrations with a non-hostile TLD operator. Aaron On Mon, 15 Sep 2003, Alex Lambert wrote:
