Statements against new.net?

Hank,

We tell them to use the ORSC root as it is the most comprehensive one out 
there. Once the collisions from New.net have been ironed out, the 
non-colliding new TLDs will be put in the ORSC root if they are not already 
there.

FYI, there's an IETF draft on the guidelines for avoiding multiple-root 
collisions here:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-higgs-root-defs-00.txt

Feedback welcome.

Best Regards,
