One thing to keep in mind is that not all of .com is broken; major country and world wide companies should sensibly have a short address, we just need an adaptive mechanism to allow more local companies to come along without losing all usability within the existing .com structure... I wouldn't have bothered to bring this up, but someone mentioned using an intermediate hash on *all* .com's (ibm.49.com), which is a waste of time. Every extra level of address hurts a bit, and it makes sense that "really big" companies should have simple .com addresses. We don't have to retrofit the new mechanism to everyone for consistency's sake. george william herbert [email protected] KD6WUQ Unix / Internet Consultant http://www.crl.com/~gherbert
