I trust your assessment of the DNS techs. But what about the DNS tech's bosses? They ordered some pretty lumpy things be done with .com and .net. Given that track record, whats to stop them from ordering the GTLD techs from doing something equally lumpy.
Well, for starters, Verisign is the ONLY one doing the .com and .net zones. To pull a stunt like that at the root, they'd have to get the OTHER 9 or 10 organizations to buy in, or they'd find themselves outvotes 13 servers to 2, or whatever the exact numbers are....
