There's not much chance of that. The DNS requirements in ICANN's gTLD  
contracts are rather low: a brush from a feather rather than a  
pummelling.

What would be a concern here is someone/something filling that vacuum  
and developing their own set of DNS requirements because of a lack of  
interest from the technical experts.

I'd be willing to work on this. Anyone else?
