Please do not involve the DNS technology into this. This only 
involves the US VGN DNS operations along NTIA, then ICANN. Like ICE. 
The question is only to evaluate the current internet use paradigm in

To know if there is an "US correct" thinking evolution nowadays? And 
how to best/most simply implement RFCs with existing tools.
