Rodney, I couldn't agree with you more, but the post looked like
a pretty poor attempt to stick one at Verisign. Maybe I got
the wrong end of the stick.
Its great that the namespace is evolving, but a pity to see
it being used as point scoring exercise with the competition.
If random ISP Y came on and said that packets would arrive faster
through their new BOZOroute engine that controls BGP4 with the
force and unlike Cisco based ISP's blah blah.
Regards,
Neil.
[p.s. can someone tell me whats the difference between a real ISP
and [I suppose] an unreal ISP?]
