Anyway, if the CSC or IFR actually made a decision that removed arpa,<br>
I think we'd be in a crisis of such epic proportions that the problems<br>
resulting from the missing reverse mappings would look tiny. (After<br>
all, reverse mappings are badly maintained on the Internet generally<br>
anyway -- the RIRs do a good job but lots of other people blow it.) I<br>
think if we get to that stage, the very idea of "co-ordination" would<br>
have broken down so badly that the entire oversight model would be in<br>
question. Indeed, it's hard to imagine an arpa change of the sort you<br>
are talking about that wouldn't result in a speedy global abandoning<br>
of the IANA root in favour of some other, sanely-operated root.<br>
DNSSEC makes that painful, but not impossible.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I agree that a lot will have gone bad bad and really there may be little or no major impact for a while if such happens. Nevertheless we have set ourselves on the part of "wild" and unbelievable scenarios (which is one of the basis for the CWG proposal) in this process so its on that basis that I am responding as well. <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

People keep approaching these issues as though there is real power to<br>
enforce illegitimate decisions. But the Internet doesn't work that<br>
way, and if we do things that are sufficiently bone-headed we will<br>
find ourselves irrelevant in short order. In my opinion, that's a<br>
good thing. It's that technical feature -- permissionless innovation<br>
at the edge -- that's got us this far.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I agree but the approach we have gone through in this transition doesn't seem as such.
