People were quite concerned about the issue of CORE being properly
overseen when the IAHC was running, so we created a regulatory
system. CORE's activities were to be tightly controlled by the POC and
the PAB. That was why we created the POC and PAB. They were there to
make sure CORE stuck to being a tiny organization that did nothing but 
manage a registry database at minimal cost.

Nope. Sorry, but that just isn't true. We thought of this problem and
addressed it.
