Am I right in thinking, from your message, that there is no alternative and, since CNRI has its hands solidly locked over IETF intellectual property, the current Trust proposal, however lame it is (I am myself very concerned with Schedule A, b) and c), which allow CNRI to keep more or less what they want), is better than nothing?
