Current Round Table Delegates ?

As the dust settles, it appears that one new
Root Name Server Confederation can be added
to the world Round Table. Hopefully, each Root
Name Server Confederation can present 2 delegates
to represent the confederation.

Here are the likely candidates.

=====================================

AlterNIC - (4 servers)
........Eugene Kashpureff
........iPOC Member ??

eDNS - (5 servers)
........Karl Denninger
........Chris Ambler

InterNIC (9 servers - U.S. Government,  et. al.)
........Dr. Joseph Bordogna (NSF)
........William Schrader (PSI)

name.space - (12 servers)
........Paul Garrin
........???

NSI/ISI - (4 servers)
........Gabe Battista (NSI)
........Jon Postel (ISI)

uDNS - (3 servers)
........Ron Kimball
........Richard Shu

=====================================

As these confederations take shape, these delegates
can help to bring synchronization between all of the
Root Name Server confederations so that collisions do
not occur in the TLD name space.

So far, many of these delegates seem to be very responsive
to maintaining "synch". Of course some refuse to discuss
matters in public. The general public (via ISPs) will eventually
be able to select which Root Name Server Confederations
are working together to build a better Internet. The people
hiding in their ivory university towers will become irrelevant.
