I have been reading the posts from this group for about the last week. I have been deciding if I should post my thoughts on the 'GIEIS' architecture.

As a network engineer for one of Britian's larger Internet services, I view 'GIEIS' as being an acceptable solution. I have examined the site almost 20 times and even put the architecture to the test using paper and pen. I am sorry to say that I could not find any point of weakness. I would have enjoyed proving Mr McCarron wrong.

I think everyone on this list should carefully consider what Mr McCarron is proposing. I understand the point about Mr McCarron being annoying and posting frequently on the matter. On the other hand, 'GIEIS' is only what I can describe as being a perfect architecture.
There is no such thing as a perfect architecture. You would have been
more credible if you had pointed out one of the weaknesses of the
system (there are plenty), but as it is, you have exposed yourself
as a simple shill. This posting is noise and spam.
  It is funny
the contrast between the creator and the architecture.

The creation of almost 2 million jobs is a major selling point behind 'GIEIS'.
This is not a major selling point. It is a major drawback. Who is going
to pay the salaries of the 2,000,000 people? The email user, that's who.
They won't. They would rather receive spam, and frankly so would I. If
GIEIS was the only system in the universe that could stop spam, I
would opt to continue to use my filters rather than to allow greedy,
self serving, self proclaimed genius and saviour of the internet,
Mr. McCarron to filter all of my mail for me. (My appologies to the
rest of the group, but I am sick to death of this GRIEIS).
  I will admit it is marketing but Mr McCarron's figures do
match up.
His figures may match up, but his initial assumptions are in error.
When you start in the wrong direction, and you go in the wrong
direction, you end up at the wrong destination.
  The ISP I work for is seriously considering investing in the
implementation program of 'GIEIS'. Not only does it make excellent business sense to do so, but it also generates an unbelievable PR opportunity. Since the release of version 0.003 of the 'GIEIS' proposal, high level meetings have occured to discuss the system. When a new version appears, anyone would be lead to believe that the CEO has arrived there are that many managers present.

'GIEIS' is the simply one of the best proposals we have ever encountered.

All I would suggest is that you do not attempt to judge the system based upon its creator.

Brian.
