DNS: funding and consensus

The peak DNS self-regulatory body must begin with getting key players
bought into the framework.  This is critical to funding.

ADNA will continue to go nowhere without funding for an office, a CEO,
CTO and administrative services.  With ADNA spending money, it will
create accountability, of which there is precious little at the moment.

So where does the funding come from?  A voluntary per-name fee from the
existing commercial SLD registrars?  The Government?  Generous sponsors?

I suspect that new registrars would contribute financially only if
convinced of the prospect of new SLDs, which will only get delegated to
a body that has the support of the community.

Leni.
