You know Ross - ICANN is nothing more then a bunch of money grubbers, if
you want to become a registrar and can afford the money to keep Michael
Roberts wine cellar well stocked, you get a registrars certificate.
Registrarfree is a shining example of how a bunch of money grubbers can
take the net and turn it into horseshit. It's a real shame - because
systems like opensrs are going to end up holding all the broken cookies,
and i don't think that's very fair.
