It would be like letting a hundred flowers bloom for the governance people.

Nowadays it is simply referred to as legally restricted content.

The IETF produces political documents dressed up as technical 
proposals.  They rarely take a line as in this draft as they are 
usually about technology.

In the Introduction Section:

   "Internet Domain Name System (DNS) distributes domain name and IP
    address for the host on the Internet."

What does the above mean?

   "In current Internet domain name hierarchy, the root DNS server
    authorizes and distributes all sub-layer DNS servers."

That doesn't match the current definition.  It has been said that "to 
remain a global network, the Internet requires the existence of a 
globally unique public name space".

Do the authors of draft-diao-aip-dns-00 share the view that:

   (a) It is essential to have a common symbol set; and

   (b) common semantic interpretation of these symbols

In Section 2.3:

   "In order to realize the transition from Internet to Autonomous
    Internet, each partition of current Internet should first realize
    possible self-government and gradually reduce its dependence on the
    foreign domain names, such as COM, NET et al."

It is somewhat simplistic to look at domain names as a way to 
transition the Internet to some other form.
