Is this really so sensible and astute, Ellen? What about the
registrants? Shouldn't we, also, be satisfied legally with the
procedures involved, since it is we who run the risk of losing our
domain names? Shouldn't we, as well as the registrars, be given the
opportunity and the time to draft and implement the ADR process,
based on our own experience, and not only that of the registrars?
This whole process and everyone involved in it has gone mad. The
Internet is a service for its users, not for its operators.
