Subject: [ga] A letter hierarchy based scheme for arbitrary TLDs

How about this:

Let's SET UP NEW TOP LEVEL DOMAINS FOR ALL SINGLE LETTERS a., b.,...z. So
the top domains will be the classical ones + these new one letter TLDs.

Now I want to have a name "anssi.abc." for my machine. I rewrite it (first
in my head) to be "anssi.a.b.c."

I go to the "c." TLD server administration. I ask them, if anyone has
registered a "b.c." first level name with them. If such domain exists, I go
to its administrator, and ask, if they have a domain "a.b.c." already. And
so on, up to the letter, that is not yet served by anyone. If the domain
"a.b.c." already does exist, I can't register a new one. First come first
served.

In this case, let's say the domain "b.c." did exist, but the domain "a.b.c."
did not. Now I register my "a.b.c." with the domain "b.c." administration.
There should be a rule, that single letter domains allow registration for
any unregistered single letter subdomains!

So now I can set up names like "anssi.a.b.c." in my own name server, serving
the domain "a.b.c.", registered at "b.c.".

NOW I MODIFY MY RESOLVER and ask everybody to do the same, if they please!
The new versions of resolvers are standardized to TRANSLATE ALL UNRECOGNISED
many-letter TLDs into a sequence of one letter domains. So "anssi.abc." will
be resolved as "anssi.a.b.c." domain.

Additionally, domains "c.o.m.", "o.r.g." etc. and corresponding country
domains like "f.i." and "u.k." can be set up as peered, synonymous domains
for "com.", "org.", "fi., "uk." and such. So that the new resolvers would
not even have to know any list of special "recognizable" classic TLD
domains.

Now anybody is free to set up whatever TLDs they want to!!!

Old resolvers will work with the old TLDs.

Old resolvers will kind of work with the new names, but only if you
translate manually, using "anssi.a.b.c" instead of "anssi.abc".

New resolvers will work with all names, old and new, whether written as
"anssi.a.b.c." or "anssi.abc."

Subject: RE: [ga] A letter hierarchy based scheme for arbitrary TLDs

Note, that if you have registered "a.b.c." with "a.b.", and somebody is
resolving a name "www.anssi.foobarabc", a query can be immediately satisfied
without delegation when it arrives to the DNS server at "a.b.c.". If all
subdomains below "a.b.c." referenced in "www.anssi.f.o.o.b.a.r.a.b.c." are
local to "a.b.c.", then they can be specified in the one and only zone file
for "a.b.c.". 

Additionally, note that although there will now be much more domain
components in the names than before, it will probably not add much to the
number of delegated subqueries in global statistics. The more queries your
name server answers, the bigger part of the single letter hierarchy it will
learn to cache. The single letter domains should have a long TTL. When your
name server has answered order of alphabet_size^2 queries, it has probably
cached most of the second level domains (a.a., a.b., a.c.,...z.z.). When it
has answered alphabet_size^3 queries, it has cached most of the third level
domain DNS IP addresses. 

To make sure that this learning process is not interrupted too often, it
would probably make sense to keep a disk based cache of the letter based
root delta domains. And have a guideline specifying a minimum TTL value that
the single letter domains must advertise.

Bruce and all assembly members,

  Thank you Bruce for making us aware of this announcement.

  The link where the "Listing" regarding the full text of this REQ,
is not available, see:
http://www.eps.gov/spg/DOC/NIST/AcAsD/SB1335-01-Q-0740/listing.html
for further details.

  This would seem the proper method of dealing with US controlled TLD's
rather than ICANN's method and is a interesting departure from ICANN's
"Lottery" method.  It also is in stark contrast to how the DOC handled
.EDU for instance...

I have discussed the proposal locally with several people who have many

not everybody can acces their machines as easily as others.

And everybody would be free to upgrade their resolvers or stick with the old
ones. They could still access the new domains with the manual "anssi.a.b.c."
trick I described.

These upgrade issues are the same as with current alternative root servers.
In fact, any of the current alternative roots could implement my scheme.

    Check and see if your *ideal* TLD is still free....It might be taken
already!

Single A-Z, 0-9 TLDs are not allowed.
Two letter TLDs are for World Countries or Country Codes only, i e (ccTLDs)

Subject: [ga] Re: A point of agreement (Re: [ga-roots] response to  responsetoresponse)

WXW, Chris and all,

  Chirs, I am afraid that WXW has it right here.  When the internet
was much younger, the survival of the fittest wasn't all that
big of an issue.  However now it is the predominant issue.  It
would have been nice to have found some middle ground.  ICANN
did not allow for that to occur.  So, for the little business/man it
is sink or swim, as WXW puts it.  The only way around that
is for govt.'s to intervene and impose regulation, which none of
us wanted, but may regret not wanting...

  We [INEGroup], believes that the ICANN BoD(s) made a huge mistake
in not providing for special protections for the small internet related
businesses and future businesses much more than they have thus far.
As some of you know, 53% of the US GNP, comes from small
business. It is estimated that 39% of that is from ecommerce on the
internet of various sorts.  The mid term impact on the US GNP,
although not really felt yet, will be huge in the mid term (2-3 yrs).
I wonder how this will play with the politicians in Wash.D.C.
in the next upcoming election in 2002 and the next national
election in 2004?  Wall St. has already picked up on this
situation and is increasingly looking into it's aspects.  
I have little doubt that ICANN will get allot of egg on it's
face as a result in the mid term, unless some serious
attitude adjustments from the ICANN BoD are forthcoming...

Sotiris and all assembly members,

  Given this ICANN BoD's history with possibly two Board members
exceptions (Karl Aurbach and Andy Mueller-Maguhn), it is not likely that

they will honestly address TLD's that they are not in complete control
over.  It is likely however that Root structures and Registries of other

Competitive and Inclusive Root structures and Registries, will continue
to flourish and expand as New.Net, Atlantic Root and Superoot have
thus far shown.

Subject: [ga] GA-ROOTS to address alternative domains 

Dear Sotiris

Please understand that members may be subscribed to one list and not
another.  It is not fair on them that they do not see items not posted to a
list that they are subscribed to because some genius with lots of degrees
and a high IQ can't open a can of soup.

Could I please ask you to post to the proper list?

Thank you
Patrick Corliss

With all due respect, that is for the list participants to decide.

Just because a list exists that this is on topic for, it does NOT make
that topic verboten on this list.

Subject: [ga] ccTLD Constituency Proposes the ccSO 

Proposed in Stockholm is that the ccTLD constituency that presently
functions within ICANN's Domain Name Supporting Organization (DNSO),
should break away from the DNSO and form its own independent entity
called the Country Code Supporting Organization (ccSO).

Well this is certainly subject content editing and shifts the liability to
the list administer as the editor, for any content inproprieties, as in
libel. (IANAL but I can read) The excercise of control takes a
corresponding amount of responsibility.

Sincerely,

Derek and all assembly members,

  I wonder if the ccSO has a web site up yet or not.  Do you know
Derek?
