Hey all... just wanted to clear a couple things up with the
.biz and .info stuff.
> .biz pre-registrations will only be offered through the RWI.
Well... that sucks!
Please, please, please tell me that the RWI will have a select box
for specifying "number of tickets" associated with an order. If
not, I'll have to submit multiple orders for customers that purchased
multiple tickets (and because of the way I'm marketing .biz, this
will be most of them).

Ah, so its not a first-in first-serve thing as initially planned?
Since you're using batch submissions, this actually makes sense -
but it means that people can increase their chances by submitting
more than one order... (but since money is on hold for .info, prob
won't be too much of that).
Just to clear up - will the random selection from the tucows queue
happen once (at the end of landrush period for example), or will
there be multiple rounds of such selections?

Three characters? Why are they doing that? Just to be awkward?
I was going to ask for a list of the country codes - but since we'll
only be submitting through the RWI, I guess there's not much point.
