I've seen this misunderstanding on several domain blogs that the US government is going to take over the .US namespace. Since inception .US has been under government control via the Dept Of Commerce (DOC) and it's subsidiary the National Telecommunications and Information Administration. Neustar was awarded the contract to manage .Us in 2001. That contract expires this October. That contract is up for bids so Neustar may lose out if they are not the winner. See here: http://snipurl.com/FedBizOpp See the relationship between Neustar, DOC and NTIA here: http://snipurl.com/DotUSManager Now it gets interesting! Thanks to DomainNameNews.com I learned that "GoDaddy and Afilias created joint venture in order to bid for .US tld". It's an interesting read: http://snurl.com/allianceregistry Patrick Andrew,
