If we do nothing about this RFC, which is what we've been doing for the
past 25 years, exactly what bad things will happen?
My analysis is basically - ...
OK, I get that, but ...
But you're asking a question that really doesn't have a good answer since
predicting the future is hard.
Then let me rephrase it. What bad things have happened in the past 25
years? What's different now?
So to reverse your question:
If we change this RFC's status to Historic, exactly what bad things will
happen?
What I said:
I think my concern is reasonable that if we do change it, people will
misinterpret "historic" as something has changed about us Locality
Administrators and will imagine that the 3LDs I've been running for 30
years might go away. At least one person in this discussion has said as
much.
John - you're running those LDs on sufferance from NTIA and Neustar and those
are the only "people" who could "misinterpret" "historic" and do something
with actual consequences.
They're not who I'm worried about. It's "https://co.seneca.ny.us can't
possibly be a real URL and [email protected] isn't a valid e-mail
address" from people who saw something in The Register. It already
occasionally happens; so let's not do something with no benefit to anyone
which is likely to make it worse.
For the unpteeth time, this dog has been sleeping for 25 years. Leave it alone.
R's,
John
