That does sound silly. Can I see the message you got because its not in
the spec that I've seen.
BTW - Sounds good to me. I encourage you all to drop CA support. More
business for the rest of us :)
But I would be curious to follow up on your error.
RE: TBR - I don't know what flap your talking about. There was the fact
they canned the first round (they had a glitch, they saw it and they fixed
it). But the second attempt went very well. All Registrars were very
pleased.
