Interesting assessment! I had not noticed that the only outspoken
supporters of Verisign were not truly operational.
But my recent post was not "against" (or "for", for that matter)
Verisign. I am just disappointed that ICANN did not have the integrity
to select a company that is _truly_ independent to judge the
applicants.
Would someone from ICANN care to explain their decision process? I
cannot believe they did not know the apparent conflict of interest.
