Yo, Verisign, you've committed to technical dicussion on this list
regarding the 'sitefinder' service (wildcard + associated
directory-did-you-mean thing).  Kee has raised a technical issue, which I
feel has not been addressed by Verisign in any fashion apart from 'here is
a solution which does not address all of your points'.

Could we have a reply on that issue, or a least an acknowledgment that the
issue has been raised?
