Re: [ga] IUSO/IUAC an urgent necessity

["William S. Lovell" <cereba@cerebalaw.com>]

Is this another language problem?  I've never heard of the "Individual
Usership"
before. Other than that, I concur entirely with what Jefsey says, and if by the

quoted term he simply means eliminating these legalistic impediments to the use

of domain names by Internet users around the world -- first conceived as a
money
making scheme by Network Solutions -- he could not be more correct. The digital

divide is also a cultural divide to which the NSI/Verisign/ICANN power elite
and
the GA "we know, you don't" power elite (see my other post of this date) both
contribute.

(What is an "american joke organizer?")
(What does it mean to "serialize" an issue?)
