Message:
Proof-of-Concept = Implementation Phase [defacto but not dejure], so don't let Fleming scare you about your domains. [The point being that you can ignore the Proof-of-Concept status of the dot-info and dot-biz TLD's, and pretend that those TLD's are in the Implementation Phase, because any ICANN action revoking the Registry status of Registries will NOT cause you to lose your domains.] Why does Fleming mention Proof-of-Concept Phase at all? Fleming's posts earlier mentioning ICANN's Proof-of-Concept phase implied that ICANN might REVOKE the registries' mainroot Registry status [thus converting them into alt root registries] and that ICANN might select a different company to be Registry. That post also implied that the new TLD domain-holders risk losing their domains.   Not so. Why does Fleming mention ICANN's Proof-of-Concept Phase at all?  Only to scare folks away from ICANN's new TLD's [and into Fleming's schemes]. Internet Advocate
Link:	ICANN's Proof of Concept term just a formality. ICANN will give final approval to Afilias & Neulevel
