I dont think using things in ways that where not considered as necessarily abuse. I agree that tasting shouldnt impact performance, but thats a trivial solution. stick tasting on a separate box distinct from normal registrations and there is no subsidising or penalty for normal registrants. > If there were a cost associated with domain tasting (ie for those names > that are not retained), then it would cease to be an abuse. what do you consider a reasonable cost?
