Fw: [registrars] telecon
Michael,
Something that you started in our meetings is that is not just about
Register.com and NSI but we are discussing how to do transfers better for
all of us. We should be coming up with a process that we all can work within
for the better of our customers. I think we all have a business need to fill
that makes transfers work safe and secure.
Thanks,
David Wascher
Manager IARegistry

| I don't understand this at all. I agree that Register.com is important
| to this issue, since they are the ones holding the domains hostage, but
| they had five people in Stockholm. Are they saying now that they can't
| spare one for a telephone call? I find this highly improbable.
|
| Michael has arranged this to conform with the urgency of the situation
| and the schedules of (as far as I can see) all but one person from one
| registrar. This seems more than fair.
|
| There have been teleconferences in the past that I couldn't make. So I
| either missed them or, if it was important enough, I changed my
| schedule. It's a simple question of priorities. If as Elana says the
| issue is important to Register.com, she'll make the call or delegate the
| duty to someone else.
