This sounds prettily what fsp4net is about ?<br><br>
Their POV is that the digitality's global governance is agoric (i.e.
polylectic: everyone mutually contributes to the common emergence). AFAIK
their difference with the NTIA is that the NTIA thinks that this common
emergence must be ported by a structured MS community process, and JFC
promotes a polycratic multitude's self-organization.<br><br>
From what I gather the NTIA/ICANN system is cybernetic, i.e.
self-regulated. The JFC proposition is agoric i.e. self-organized.
Experience (running code) will tell who is right through a
"catastrophe". In the cybernetic system a catastrophe is the
end of the local day, in an agoric system (living mode) it only is a
singularity which is self-patched by the global system.<br><br>
I know these concepts sound quite esotheric :-), but this is the core of
the current scientific, economic, political, etc. "locality
issue" (EPR paradox, Quantum Mechanics, Einstein Relativity) that
Vint Cerf has brillantly multidisciplinary extended in its 1978 Internet
founding paper (IEN 48):

<dd>"One motivation for this objective is to permit the internal
technology of a data network to be optimized for local operation but also
permit these locally optimized nets to be readily interconnected into an
organized catenet. <b>The term "local" is used in a
<u>loose</u> sense, here, since it means "peculiar to the particular
network"</b> rather than "a network of limited geographic
extent."
</dl>However, the TCP/IP protocol set is based upon the Louis Pouzin's
datagram, similar to the Einstein's e=mc2 and cosmological constant (TCP
is here to correct the non-locality multi-path delay, error and some
other entropic issues. One of these problem is the US entropic legal
harasment. We all know that the DNS nicely handles that particular issue
in spite of the State US lie about it. Many try to patriotically and
commercially support it. Parminder, do you support what Louis Pouzin
stated: that all this will support the alternative roots concepts (I
prefer to speak of homeroot).<br><br>
