that a bright, rich one can pay for. Wild Wide Web.

I am sorry WXW, but I do not give a damn about the US law as far as gTLDs 
are concerned. Or I will start a ".com" clone in Europe. After all I ran 
"com" for years long before NetSol :-)

required by statute? who did vote that? Just because some day Jon Postel 
found it advisable when managing names in University environment where 
people move quite often and there are sponsors around. So you need 4 names 
and addresses per DNs...
