What is the ICANN definition an alternative root?  The ICANN staff
stated in the TLD RFC that:

     "The introduction of the proposed TLD should not disrupt current
operations, nor should it create alternate root systems, which threaten
the existence of a globally unique public name space."

    Does a definition of an aternative root system exist?
