Don't make this more political than it is.  The proposals are in a 
section called "Six Possible Process Flow Models."  The NTIA is not 
saying, here are 6, vote.  It's saying "tell us, and here's kinda 
what we are thinking."

Be technical.  Be what you do best.  Don't try to beat politicians at 
their game.  Bad strategy, I've found.

One reason I am not offering my opinion here is that I'd rather 100 
people write against what I'd say from their own minds and not to 
pick a fight.  A hundred genuine opinions is better than a thousand 
"me too's" or "not me too's."

Besides, my idea involves a team of trained monkeys, explosive bolts, 
three clowns, an asteroid and a capsized oil rig.

If nothing else, it'd be real cool.
