Hi Jordan, The only one that I know well is Luis Diego Espinoza, who is the former technical manager of .cr. He is solvent in DNS matters, responsable and reasonable, and hard worker too.

Hi all
Is anyone else finding this difficult? Neither I nor my team know many of the candidates, and the information being presented is just sourced from the candidates.
Can anyone offer a professional, informed opinion about the suitability of these people for this role?
cheers Jordan
