Willi,

These constructions may not look like the 
"internet" you feel you know, the IETF has 
documented, ICANN tries to dominate, and politicians think they may govern.

They have to do with (the experience we had so far) :
* 1973 Louis Pouzin's ***catenet*** theory,
* the FCC-PTT 1977 real world Robert Tréhin's "international network";
* the1978 IEN 48 experimentation which still 
tries to free itself from "NSA-compatibility".

In addition the internet technology (the same for 
its NSA constrained technological contenders) was 
not designed for the present traffic patterns. 
Even if turned to be extremely robust ad 
accomodating, this led to technological 
limitations. Edge providers try to circument them 
externally (private "backones"). NDN considers 
how to address this from inside. Net neutrality 
is poorly understood but boils down to: "let make 
all this not affect my traffic".

All these things look like "NATs": they look like 
patches to keep the system afloat.

This is why time has come to re-document the 
whole cyberspace from an applied catenet secure 
and sustainable use perspective. I think this 
much needed clarification is possible and we now 
have the tools and capacities to do it - but not the money :-) ?

This is what we are trying to initiate through 
the FLOSS Catenet Cooperative Company project.

However, I doubt that existing edge providers 
like GAFAs, or ITU and States,our ourselves  can 
do it alone. It is too complex (in the meaning - 
if this was only technical - of a large number of 
deeply intricated simplicities). In a real world 
this is quite complicate as there is a big bucnh 
of interfering interests, egos and costs.
