cc: Charles Daminato re: Verisign 16 Page Document Ken,
In Section 1 (INTRODUCTION) and Section 2 (VARIOUS SERVICES) of the 16 page document they make numerous reference to schedules A through R, some of these by specific letter but I could only find schedules a,d,e,f,g,o,q,r as part of the document. Since the document is not complete how can it be in any sense of the word "eforceable"? Also, Section 3 (FEES, PAYMENT AND TERMS OF SERVICE) Be sure to read at the bottom of the paragaraph the sentance that reads "You agree to pay..." Seems to be poor or otherwise seemingly open-ended language. I am not even reading the Schedule (R) pertaining to transfers to other registrars as this new system of theirs is not working. Chuck, on our last domain transfer we recieved neither the desired confirmation email or the denial email (we checked our trash/quarantine/filters) so we will try again.
