Re: [wg-c] Proposed gTLDs: The IAHC Seven

Really? Then why do they say on their web sites that they'll be
entered into the CORE system in a round-robin fashion? Why
do they still maintain, on some sites, that CORE will have the
7 names in the root soon (some say as soon as September of
1999 (sic)).

For that matter, what happened to the CORE SRS? Was the
system scrapped in favour of the one CORE is running now
to be an ICANN registrar? Was all of the data from the
test that CORE ran just dumped?

Finally, Dave, what is your authority here with respect to
CORE? How do you know this?

I look forward to your answers.
