This was expecially true of .CA before it's reformation. About 7
eyars ago everybody I knew here wanted a ca name, but the ca
committee was fussy about what names it would give out and
after waiting 3 months to be told no, people got a name
the next day from Internic.
So, because cctlds were so badly managed in the past,
NSI got most of the business. It's reward for doing this
good job is prosection?
I'd wager to say that NSI's registration services are used
by people wo are wuite happy with it, every day, than have
complaned about NSI, ever.
