Dear Gregory,
I understand you dislke Micahel's diagnosis but this is exactly what 
one can decide to read in RFC 3869 and RFC 6852 (the amount is there 
qualified as a "huge bounty"). Anyway this has no importance. The 
truth in this case is that it is what the majority of the world 
thinks (right or not) and that it is the situation we have to cope 
with. You (men of speech) with your words, us (VGN Managers) with our 
acts and decisions.

Yes. I know that as a lawyer this is your admirable job, to defend 
people. But in this case the task is not to defend anyone but to 
protect the whole multitude from hurting misunderstandings. Be sure, 
and this is not a good news, but it is the reality, that it will take 
time now before a foreign informant accepts to put his life at stake 
to inform the CIA or the NSA of something dangerous for you, or a 
country to trust US President's "evidences", or a non-US user to 
believe in the necessity of an ICANN single authoritative root file.

I am afraid this is ad personam and no more ad hominem. I am not sure 
of the reason why you allude to Francophones?
