  1. Glad to see it finally achieve recommendation stat on CSS 2.1 Becomes W3C Recommendation · · Score: 1

    Kewl,

    But it's not like it wasn't a defacto standard anyway, for quite some time.

    Let's see what mACROsFOT tries to embrace and extend on this one eh?

  2. Architecture is not just for networks... on Firewalls Make DDoS Attacks Worse · · Score: 1

    News Flash!!!!

    Stop manufacturing castles that expose right angles and sharp corners to would be army's bringing siege engines with them!

    Solution #1: Just open the freakin' gates and let down the ramp over the moat (solution provided by this article

    Solution #2: Build your castles with all exposed surfaces along your walls and towers with curves and rounded facings - it's harder for the rocks to chunk away at you, and you're not bringing the battle to the inside of the castle like you are with Solution #1.

    wtf is this article supposed to suggest?

    What-Ev!

  3. Re:I've said this before on ICANN Director Sues ICANN for Access to Records · · Score: 1

    Millions already have - either via their ISPs or directly by upgrading their DNS to use The PacificRoot(R). Details are located at http://www.PacificRoot.com/updatedns.shtml. You can also join the growing community of PacificRoot Accredited Registrars by visiting http://www.POSSR.com or see our full page ads in ISP World magazine.

    er... it's actually not a route around for the Alternate, deprecated, legacy system operated by ICANN - It's a complete replacement.

    BTW, This "ICANN Director" (Karl, that is) operates the .EWE TLD which is carried by The PacificRoot. Once you upgrade your DNS you will be able to visit his website at http://www.beautiful.ewe :)

  4. Re:Namespace collisions? - sign the petition ! on New Domains Delayed, Open to Corps. First · · Score: 1

    Although ICANN sites the contractual priorities with regards to VeriSign as their reasons for pushing back the so-called, "New TLDs" until later this year, there are most likely other reasons for their failure to address the TLD issue in Melbourne this week. Concerns over the .BIZ issue and the hearings at the House and Senate levels, along with the various root systems coming together in unison (Except for ICANN and they run a very small rootzone) may actually have more to do with this decision to move back the time-tables than anything else. We urge everyone who understands and agrees that the government should not destroy, nor compete with legitimate businesses that have made their homes, livelihoods, and networks in the Inclusive Name Space to lend their support by signing the congressional petition located at http://PacificRoot.com/collider

  6. ORSC gains acceptance over deprecated ICANN root on ICANN Selects New Top Level Domains · · Score: 1

    Last week during the ICANN annual meeting in Los Angeles, little known ORSC made huge inroads into the core of the ICANN Monopoly. Representatives of The Open Root Server Confederation were on hand converting and convincing hundreds of key ICANN attendees that the ICANN Legacy Root's days were numbered. Immediately following the meeting, many influencial organizations and individuals - including at least one ICANN board member - switched to one of the ORSC affiliated root zones, which provide for an inclusive name space of considerably more than just the usual com/net/org Intenet that most users have been led to believe they were limited to. Top-Level Domains (TLDs) such as .BIZ, .WOMEN, .LIST, .CHILDREN and .NEWS count for only a few of the litterally dozens available in the ORSC Inclusive Name Space that has existed since long before ICANN. Dr. Vint Cerf, challenged other board members and stymied attempts to award .WEB to an ICANN applicant because Image Online Design Inc. had, "An Operational Registry" resolved by the ORSC Root system. Although the board agreed to further negotiations with ICANN applicant JVTeam with regards to admitting .BIZ into their Legacy root, it is unlikely that such an event could occur given the fact that the Atlantic Root Network Inc. has contracted an "operational commercial registry" to accept registrations for the five year old domain. Information on ORSC can be found at http://www.open-rsc.org while registration information for .BIZ is available at http://www.biztld.net. Dozens of other domains can be registered at The PacificRoot's commercial Registry located at http://www.PacificRoot.com

  8. Re:Check out the TLDs in the ORSC root system on Will New TLDs' Restrictions Negate Their Aims? · · Score: 1

    Where do you see a typo? Looks fine to me and if you do a 'dig . ns' while resolving from the correct root (ie: Not the deprecated Legacy Root operated by ICANN) you'll see everything come up just fine. So again, where do you see the typo? Or are is your brain just having dificulty understanding normal, everyday, standard DNS?
