For all that I'm critical of wildcards in TLDs -- I spoke at the meeting yesterday, and my slides are on my Web page -- I don't think there are any issues of malfeasance. No one has been looting Verisign's coffers, they're not cooking the books, etc. I see three issues: is this technically wise, did Verisign have the right to do this under their current contract with ICANN, and should they have such a right. I don't see anything resembling dishonesty. --Steve Bellovin, http://www.research.att.com/~smb
