Donald says: I'm puzzled why anyone would think that, these days, IANA is under US DoD authority. If IANA were under any US Goverment authority, it would be NSF. Sorry to disagree with you Donald but i have been quite explicitly told that if IANA is under the authority of anyone it is under the authority of NOT DoD NOR NSF but rather the **Advanced Research Projects Agency** (ARPA). Now if the director of ARPA steps forward, or any other ARPA official comes forward and says no ARPA claims no authority over IANA then we'll all be enlightened. ******************************************************************** Gordon Cook, Editor & Publisher Subscript.: Individ-ascii $85 The COOK Report on Internet Non Profit. $150 431 Greenway Ave, Ewing, NJ 08618 Small Corp & Gov't $200 (609) 882-2572 Corporate $350 Internet: [email protected] Corporate.
