I think that there was more than a name change. It was a change of the administration to a different entity from one that was represented by the University of Puerto Rico (educational) to a new one represented by a non-profit corporation (commercial). We have been working with this issue since 2002. In 2005 ISOC-PR board of directors approved a position paper (which David Younger just sent to the list) and has been working with the Government of Puerto Rico since. I just realized that we got the statement last year when the Senate approved the recommendations that came out of the investigation. Thanks.

It sounds to me as though there has not been an official redelegation by the IANA but merely a name change in the whois by the current delegated manager. If the government and ISOC-PR press IANA and ICANN for an official redelegation, I think you'll get it. With both the support of the government and the support of the relevant Internet community, Dr. Moreno is unlikely to retain his stranglehold on the ccTLD. If you form the non-profit and then write to ICANN (Cerf and Twomey) and the IANA (Conrad) asking for the redelegation, I think you'll see some forward progress. Bret
