Better a KNOWN evil, than to create a new one without serious
consideration as to how it will be composed and established.
We are not in this for a short term solution. This is a long term
issue, and making compromises that have serious long term impacts in
the name of a short term gain for CORE (or anyone else for that
matter) to a new TLD now is totally and completely unacceptable.
And don't accuse me of being an NSI apologist, Dave. I'm an equal
opportunity critic, I dislike both NSI and CORE. But I'm for a system
that will permit them to compete on an open playing field in the
registry industry with other equally competitive registries, and to
set this up in a fair, just, and sound manner.
