Re: [ga] Original purpose of the DNS
Bruce, you should not get confused between the need and the organization of a response to the need. Names chosen by the users need to be supported and the DNS is a solution. But that DNS solution does not create the names and carries not intrinsic right over the User's choice, unless the Users agree to restrict their rights upon proposition of the DNS designers. Hence the need of Internet Users and DNS Designers "constituencies". you should also note that the DNS has been adopted on the internet in a totally different context. Please consider RFC920 and tell me how much of it relates to the current practice of the DNs.
