Whereas the ICANN archive at
http://www.icann.org/stockholm/unique-root-draft.htm
comprises
three distinct elements, each posted on a different day, but
noted as posted together on 28 May 2001:-1) Discussion Draft: A Unique, Authoratitive
Root for the DNS,
posted 28 May
2001.
2) Note to the ICANN Community by
Stuart Lynn, posted 29 May
2001.
3) Public Comment Forum, posted 1 June 2001
(?)
Whereas between May 28 2001 and June 1 2001, many
comments about item
numbered 1 above were posted by
members of the ICANN community to various official
DNSO
mailing lists, also published by other media in the public
domain.
It
is therefore apparent that the historical context in which some
comments are
made by the community cannot be relied upon.
For the purposes of historical accuracy,
and the avoidance of
doubt that ICANN may tamper retrospectively with substantive
documents in its own archive, I call upon members of the
General Assembly
of the DNSO and the Internet Community to
urge ICANN to note all updates as and
when they are made to
specific URLs for all to see.
