After reading the article I posted about here (http://hosthideout.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1877), there was a mention of the 'Domain Justice Coalition' (reminds me of the SuperFriends for some reason). So I seached and this was the only thing Google found:

Verisign's Anticompetitive Waiting List Service (https://www.buydomains.com/domainnews/verisigns_anticompetitive_wls.jsp)
by Michael Mann
President, BuyDomains.com
On behalf of the Domain Justice Coalition

Interesting read, at least one man's viewpoint, which I more or less agree with. Anyone have any other info on this 'Domain Justice Coalition' ???

I found additional information on Dotster's site. They have compiled several links including PDF files which explain further what this is all about. Obviously, as you've already read, the Domain Justice Coalition was formed by 15 leading registrars to battle VeriSign's WLS system. Here's the information I was able to find from Dotster:

In response to VeriSign's proposed domain name Wait Listing Service (WLS), a group of 15 leading domain name registrars and resellers have joined to form the Domain Justice Coalition...

I agree with a lot of the statements made by the DJS, but I also agree with Chicken: The answer is not to return the control of the Domain Name System to the government.

I am not saying I know what the answer is, I just know what it isn't :D.
