Well, obviously I disagree. It is my firm opinion that the people
politically opposed to the ICANN/USG/pick-your-DNS-political-enemy
are reading way too much between the lines in this document.
I stand by my claim that the document is first and foremost
technical in nature, and I wish those people claiming otherwise
would actually go back and read the document and cite chapter and
verse.
