By the way, do we even know what we're talking about? Specifically, has VeriSign produced a set of specifications for exactly what SiteFinder is and does? For example, is it guaranteed to return the same A record for all unregistered domains? Is it guaranteed that that A record will not change? Until VeriSign produces a technical specification for what it is they intend to do, they cannot expect other people to opine about what effects their changes will have. VeriSign has not yet even started the notification and analysis period. Isn't VeriSign's lawsuit premature? I mean, ICANN has not yet said no to any specific technical proposal from VeriSign, at least as far as I know. Is VeriSign arguing that they should be able to do whatever they want with the root DNS, with no advance notice to anyone? DS
