Milton, these three non-commercials are not the only ones that had a problem with the OPOC proposal. Patrick Vande Walle (ISOC) also had issues as did EPIC (that disagreed with the OPoC's proposal to continue to publish registrants' names and countries of origin). Additionally, legitimate criticisms of OPoC were offered by groups such as the National Arbitration Forum. We shouldn't be dismissing legitimate criticisms just because some of the commentators can be characterized as being within the TM camp. What happened to the concept of an argument standing on its merits? The criticisms that I read in the public comments were on target and warranted. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need Mail bonding?
