The Internet has always consisted of peer-to-peer hosts. It seems odd
that people talk about peer-to-peer as a new feature.
...and are there similarities with those basic assumptions and those
people expected from the .com/.net domains?
For either case, have you (the collective recipients of this email)
thought both long and hard about those two issues. Are your beliefs
about each compatible?
