Dear Dave,


Your way of understanding could be one, but my understanding is a little
bit different. For the help of your understanding, I will rewrite that
statement in other way.

"The single DNS root leads to excessive administrative centralization.
ICANN should support the evolutionary development of the DNS away from a
centralized architecture."

--> The single DNS root leads to excessive administrative (not technical)
centralization. ICANN should support the evolutionary development of the
DNS (operation and administration) away from a centralized architecture
(and not tightly bound by a centralized architecture)

I read this statement not in technological context but in administrative
context. In this context, Karl Auerbach's arguments sound good. What's
your response to his arguments? I basically understand what you are
repeatedly emphasizing about single root server mechanism although I
cannot understand why that point should be repeatedly stated. 


Regards,

Chun Eung Hwi
