PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
Can we hold off on a discussion about dropping prices until
we have implemented .ca?? Communication is crucial right now
and I think it could at least wait until later in the week
(month... year... millennium...).
Didn't we just have this long drawn out discussion (which is
freely available to the whole world via the OpenSRS website)??
BTW, RCOM's stock went from a high of $105 in March to its current
state of (query foggy and fatigued mind) around $8. Is this the company
you want to react to? Maybe if we continue to do what we know is good
business and leave the reactionary stuff to off-listers.....

I think this is a good time for Tucows to reduce its wholesale fee
of USD 10 per domain to USD 8 per domain.
This will help Tucows remain competitive in the wholesale
registrar market.
Is there any comment on this from Open SRS management, staffers?
Thank you,
