it would seem NSI and all the folks that lay claim to the goldmine of TLDs
are setting up a meeting to "The workshop is intended - in spirit and
letter - to fully meet the requirements specified in the Dept. of
Commerce, NTIA Proceeding Policy Statement on this subject. "

the scary part is it looks like only those folks that oppose
the gtld-mou are comming. i doubt it will meet the requirements
unless some of the "other" intrests are represented....
