Re: rpki vs. secure dns?

Danny, 
just one more comment.

So named vendor's support can be the worst case when there are no practical 
ways to deploy and it is  absolutely
not clear - should we follow this hierarchical model - I think it is  the key 
point as we pushed ourselves by inertia to this way of thinking.


Imho - it is way to nowhere in such form

We need more flexible, distributed architecture behind - no matter - which 
interests will be lobbied as we have got already.

Randy -
you know that I'm enough stupid- means straightforward - 

may be the way is not only technical (recomendations design) - but also to 
combine with some policy changes as
splitting allocations and assignments (may be changing who is responsible for 
what?)

Or we follow the traditional way(means hierarchy) or we are capable to 
introduce one more 
level for flexebility - we should be honest that all techinical design just 
follows some political or quasi-political decisions.
But I think it can be changed.

John,
I  like your approach - simply no comments


 I think the way as your legislation guys decided to follow can be absolutely 
wrong.

My opinion that the real problem laid in financial issues with developing 
countires and US native commercial  interests that you (not you personally - of 
course) aimed to protect

All this discussion have only  financial background - no more.

Dima
PS 
You can reference not only to magazines - but more on  House of Representatives 
which expressed their opinions more openly.

The real issue is not laid in their economics - but in ours - our legacy 
players(mobile are the same)
We simply try to hide our own problems behind their issues and use them again

Re: US House to ITU: Hands off the Internet

2012-08-03 Thread Dmitry Burkov
in my stupid opinion it is the problem of a new global still developing global 
market - key dominated players are from  our countries - which see on them as 
on strategical national strategic assets. Should I explain more?
Or it is already clear?

I classified censorship and IPR protection in the same manner or I mistaken?
