Re: "I insist that ALAC's role is not to act as a consumer protection agency. And this is the key issue on which we have a disagreement." Nice try at spin. Responding to those that contact your organizational Forum, and bringing those registrant concerns to the attention of the Board is hardly the totality that constitutes a consumer protection agency. So let me try to understand you correctly wit regard to Mr. Moore's issue, you are arguing that a registrar can choose not to renew a domain name that he has sponsored even if he has received payment for such a renewal, and that action does not violate the registrar's sponsorship obligations as set out in the RAA. Is that correct? ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals? Find them fast with Yahoo!
