Accepting the premise that this sort of thing is a good idea, it still seems to me those numbers aren't very useful because they do not factor in the number of names handed out by each registrar. If registrar A has given out one million names with only 1,000 of them having been advertised in spam, that's only 0.1% of their customers. On the other hand, if registrar B has only given out 20,000 names and a mere 200 of them have been advertised in spam, that's 1% of their customers. To me, this would mean that registrar A is ten times more "spam hostile" then registrar B. Yet the way the numbers would be presented by the above URL, it would only say that A had 1,000 while B had 200, yielding the opposite conclusion and, IMO, incorrect conclusion on who is more "spam hostile." -------------------------- John C.
