[wg-c] Shared TLD and shared roots?

WRT IAB:

The hallmark of technical absurdity is making statements which run counter
to existance proofs.

In spite of the problems with SRS, it can work, if run properly. It can also
be scaleable, if run properly. For the most part, the SRS seems to be
working, for various definitions of "working". It appears that SRS will
improve. Thus, lending the lie to the infeasibility argument, of the IAB.
Note that, if the IAB were to acknowlege this fact, it would also have to
retract the arguments against the feasibility of multi-part root systems.
For all intents and purposes, they are the same argument set. For this
reason, IAB will continue its technical argument against what has already
bee proven to work, and continue down the road to irrelevance. Part of what
makes such a system work is adequate business process, not technical finess.

Myself and others have already pointed to various proofs of shared
root-zones.

There are no technical restrictions here either.<g>
