Yes, I was suprised when you replied to that message.
In any case, NANOG definitely *IS* the right place to discuss replacing
IP, although I don't expect much discussion until there is more IPv6
implementation in the USA. And I never proposed replacing DNS and IP at
the same time. One transition at a time is enough to deal with.
As for "other forums", your claim would be more credible if you would
identify these other forums. As far as I know there is not currently any
forum that is seriously studying a replacement for the current DNS
architecture. If I'm wrong, please provide details.
