I love engineers playing economists and lawyers :) That reminds me of nuclear physicists who are pretty damn sure they can do anything better than anybody else, including writing programs. Sure, yeah. I would call to look for solutions in the domain we understand and can influence, namely the technological soultions, and let the sleeping legal hounds lie. It appears that the current economical model of Internet is sustainable for time sufficient for design and deployment of new technology. (I meant *new* technology, not IPv6 or creatures of Alcohol-Troubled Minds). Please do not take that personally, it is just a reality check. --vadim
