Because it suits you? Why not to ask yourself why the "news" was released 2 years after its official publication. It's always good to double check such "news" before posting them to the mailing list. It is always good to technically cross-check the DNS before betting his reputation on a people.com.cn "news". The real and important news is that after three years, after meetings on IDNs, after the fuss of this week, an ICANN BoD Member with technical competence may send such a mail. It means that the Chinese way to manage the DNS fully matches the ICANN ICP-3 criteria: after 3 years no one noticed any malfunctionning of the DNS due to it. We have a real test. With hundreds millions users. Now, other countries are entitled to copy them. Hmmm... this requires a new Governance system. When you consider the US and the Chinese sub-appropriations of the Internet: USA has its NTIA root. China has its domain list extending the US one. But now if a third contry starts doing the same, how will they establish interoperability? IETF does not want to consider. ICANN does not want to consider. May be ITU will want to host the Top Lever Directory? jfc
