Even for present proofing, you have to deal with the fact that .info and
.name are both valid now.
As more people learn about .name, I'd expect to be getting substantially
more email from people like [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(no I haven't done that yet, and I suspect if I did, I'd have created my own
personal One True Spam-Magnet, but that doesn't mean other people won't be
giving out their .name addresses to websites)
Just food for thought. The Future Is Now ;-)
