Mutual respect is what is lacking here. You people must understand that
once a TLD is created - don't matter which root creates it - what does
matter is that all roots carry that label (tld). Its a bit like dogs
taking a piss. I've used this example for years to explain the
difficulties with TLDs. When a dog takes a piss it marks out it's
territory. Another dog wanting to take a piss will not do so on another
dogs marked territory. When those people who are self appointed TLD
authorities act more like dogs then we'll actually be getting somewhere.
