ICANN Recommends ISOC Run .org TLD

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the thanks-fellas-thanks-a-lot dept.

Amazing Quantum Man writes "According to ZDNet, ICANN has issued a report recommending that ISOC run the .org TLD. It looks like ISOC would run .org in conjunction with Afilias." mesozoic points out that ISOC is a non-profit organization composed of many for-profit heavyweights, writing "I'm not surprised; are you?" This preliminary report may be disappointing to those who hoped that Paul Vixie and Carl Malamud would be successful in their bid to head up .org.

    I love the visual studio.net ad in the middle of my slashdot page.

    It shows a lot of integrity. You guys really stand behind what you're selling.

    Never hurts to have clean pubes, you know.

    My mom always told me "make sure your pubes are clean in case you get into an accident"

    We should just drop this whole DNS thing and start memorizing and looking up IP addresses, just like we do with telephone numbers. Have a big ass book of IP addresses. Use your browser's equivalents of redial/memory functions. Yeah, that's it. Who needs this crap anymore? http://64.28.67.150/, News for Nerds. Stuff that matters.
