Hi Mikey
The good news I guess is that the distribution is improving, however the
current state of play will certainly fuel arguments from those governments
who feel they're still getting a poor deal.

hi all,
this seems like especially interesting reading for those of us who are based
outside North America and Europe. it would be helpful to go a little deeper
than this analysis and get a better feel for things like latency and
congestion. it would also be interesting to understand some of the
deeper/historical rate-of-change rates (for example change in users vs
change in root-servers over time).
