Richard, today the Internet, tomorrow the world! ;-)

I happen to agree with you, and think in time we'll get there. We ought to have the name "in the bank" in the meantime. I think right now InternetAtLarge strikes the interim balance we've talked back and forth about. Not too much, not too little. Goldilocks would be so tickled.

I didn't like the clenched fist logo and I don't personally favour anything
negative in our logo. I'd also prefer to keep absolute clear distance from
ICANN and I wouldn't want to even afford them the honour of a crossed out
name. We should regard the ICANN name as contemptible and it should not
besmirch our logo
I'm with you here too. AND, I'd still like to see it up (and out), but for just one month! It would announce the break, get a lot of need publicity and mileage, and then we'd drop it. Kind of like the colonies dumping the Union Jack, and then bringing out their own flag.
