Re: Copyright [was RE: [ga] New TLD White Paper released]

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Marc and all former DNSO GA members,

  Your analogy, like mos analogies, does not fit.  Road Sighs are
often maintained by variety of organizations in the US, and also
by a variety of organizations in States in the US as well.  Some
States road sighs are made, and installed by prisoners in
State prisons.  License plates are also mostly made by
state prisoners in US states.

 So, so much for the Road Sign analogy....

  Competition is a good and healthy thing, Marc.  Such competition
must not only exist but be cultivated, encouraged, protected
and supported in the TLD/root structure arena as well lest we
end up with a organizational monopoly.

  As China, and Taiwan more forward with expansion of their Root
structure system throughout asia.  So shall other root structures
continue to expand...  This is a healthy think for a Free Market System.
Therefore cooperation between and amongst these Root structure systems
is advisable if not necessary.  The sooner the better.
