But since you bring it up, if they can't run a website, do you want them running the Internet?
The only people who claim ICANN has a goal of "running the Internet" are people outside of ICANN. ICANN, itself, has a far more modest and mundane goal. That you would insist that an organization with non-critical hosts incur the cost of an Akamai service, or the like, rather than simply enjoy basic co-location with an ISP that has a good track record, bespeaks of the mission creep people keep trying to impose on ICANN. d/ ---------- Dave Crocker <mailto:dcrocker@brandenburg.com> Brandenburg InternetWorking <http://www.brandenburg.com> tel +1.408.246.8253; fax +1.408.273.6464
