"Verisign will discuss the technical impact of this issue on this list.
However, we all agree there is no technical impact, since this works.
Furthermore, by limiting this list to a technical conversation, we will
completely ignore the political impact, and political correctness of these
acts in any forum."
Having been involved in the community internet for as long as I have, I
want to wretch. I'd think Mark would be one of those, as well.
