Speaking from my experience, the new.net idea has been rubbished both on
uknot (a list which consists of a lot of the UK Internet Industry
movers'n'shakers) and ecdiscuss, it's also been rubbished a lot in the
press.

I wouldn't advise anyone to start reconfiguring their nameservers. Just be
patient and wait for ICANN ;)
