I do not think the domain issue is beyond the scope of NANOG. In fact, w/o working DNS the value of services provided by N.A.N.Operators is zero. In other words, the domain insanity reached the level where it starts to impact the business of ISPs materially. In other words, it is in the interest of ISPs to step in and inject some sanity into how that vital part of infrastructure is being run. ISPs is the only party in the debate which actually has resources and enough business sense to make it a workable setup. I strongly suspect that "expert groups" and "engineering task forces" have already demonstrated their unability to fix the problem. Now, to me it looks like CIDR movie rerun. --vadim
