You may believe that the above regulatory bodies are less than perfect. But what you can't do is assert that what goes on in their stead on the net works any better.
Get involved, then! Bitching about stuff on NANOG doesn't help, as you've seen, so I really can't understand why you continue to do so. If there's such an obvious gap, fill it! Personally, I don't think the gap is nearly as bad as you think; however, I'm involved with or on the edges of a number of groups that are quite active in some of the areas you seem to feel are missing from the Internet industry. Of course, this is /way/ off of the inflammatory topic that you started this thread with, so I'll save my prosyltizing(sp?) for some future event. -- J.D.
