It also imtimates that they do not believe that ICANN has any right
under current legislation to monitor what actually goes into the zone
file; only the way verisign behaves as a registry. The fact of the
matter is that yes, there is a seperation between those two items but
ICANN most deffinitely has a say in how the technical aspects can be
managed. Also, once verisign made a change to the root file for it's
own commercial benefit, they themselves crossed the line between
registry and maintainer.
