RE: [ga] XTNS Seeks Proposals

["Peter de Blanc" <pdeblanc@usvi.net>]

I make no comment on the subject of xtns-

However I do object to the obvious "business and commercial" nature of
this posting to the GA list

Just a note, but XTNS is currently accepting proposals for the creation
of new domains -- in any of over 150 languages or character sets. We are
also accepting proposals for territory by territory Registries who may
have name control in partnership with us for that territory for XTNS
domain namespaces. And no, there is no application fee ;-)

proposals@xtns.net

We are also seeking applicants for our names council, which will seek to
dialog with and interface with the dnso, ICANN, IETF, ICANN names
council, ccNICs, etc.
