Yup - that another big one. The LOCAL tld must by now be hugh in traffic. As you know Peter the public root we have developed is the only one to see the microsoft TLDs. And lets not forget localhost which is also a Public Root tld. How ICANN can avoid answering LOCALHOST questions is beyond me.

I must say it's a blast to run your own root when you know what your doing. ICANN must really get up to speed on this sort of thing. Unfortunately I have to agree with the majority opinion I have seen repeated here constantly. ICANN as we have heard over and over again from others is not about technical competence and all about greed.

God does not approve.
