[governance] The decentralization of the DNS system

Dear Chantal,

The internet proceeds by experimentation of permissionless innovative 
ideas. ICANN has pertinently documented reasonable and acceptable 
guidance for this innovation to be tested without interfering with 
their own operations. The DNS technology can support several 
architectural options that have or not have been attempted/tested. So 
there is no problem with new propositions as long as one can 
reproduce them and test them.

I would be quite interested in understanding the Open-Root offer.

Where could I find a technically clear description of the Open-Root 
system/architecture and practical operations? May be an IETF like 
Draft (I say "like" because I understand that you would not like to 
be bound by the NSANET technology's IETF Trust copyrights). From A to 
Z, with may be some FAQ addressing fellow engineer's questions, and a 
step by step explanation of the way any user (not Open-Root 
customers) may access Open-Root TLD named sites.

Also, I would be interested in the practical set of programs, tools, 
files, etc. I need to establish a new Open-Root TLD.

Eventually, I have some difficulty understanding if the Open-Root.eu 
proposition is commercial, proprietary or a Libre?

Thank you for your responses which should probably help clarifying 
this 20+ years on-going discussion.
