Someone, "J-F C. (Jefsey) Morfin" <jefsey@club-internet.fr>, I think, said:

> the meaning of the word "global" differs in American and in English.

This was in response to:

>> DNS has been designed to present a single, globally unique name space

Could someone please elucidate the comment that "global" has different
connotations "in American and in English"?

I mean in this technical context, not with silly examples like how
America has narrowly scoped athletic contests but calls the victors
world champions.
