Well,

What is the mechanism to get this done?  I would suggest get a list of real
nonprofits, let me think  -- maybe the non-commercial people have it.;>} Then
ask them if they would help with the interim start up. Not necessarily money.
And then form a board and get some of the Universities to help with the
engines and technical aspects and market it as being that way so people would
feel good about registering a dot org. etc. etc.

Wait a second the Non-Coms put out the best paperwork in the DNSO have
Universities that already really run registries for ccTLDs or could get them I
believe, and have a need for the revenue and are already organized.........

Sorry lost my train of thought perhaps you could find it for me.

Sincerely,
Eric
