A root zone with several thousand TLDen is no technical problem. I wonder when the effect kicks in. If it does. A positive side-effect would be to enable the altroot kooks to buy a TLD (.altroot -- under which they can run their own mini-Internets) of their own, which would disable some, if not all of them. -- Måns Nilsson primary/secondary/besserwisser/machina MN-1334-RIPE +46 705 989668 An Italian is COMBING his hair in suburban DES MOINES!
