Sorry, I misread his "registrar" as "registrant". Offlist? Meant to send just you you, but it is too late in the day after too many teleconferences. Alan At 13/06/2013 10:42 PM, Eric Brunner-Williams wrote:
Alan,
Tom's speculation concerned a property of registrars, the physical nexus between the registrars and the City of New York, and the conditions community-based registries may propose in support of their claim to have a restrictive registration policy may manifest in some conditions on registrars, e.g., be capable of title search in one or all of the Five Boroughs or grants of business licenses, again, in one or all of the Five Boroughs, or capable of in-person registration, again, in one or all of the Five Boroughs reducing the registrars for, e.g., .nyc, to those with a physical presence in one of the five boroughs.
It was in CORE's response to the DOITT for .nyc. I wrote it.
Your observation was to revisit .pro's initial claim, which limited registrants by some property other than physical nexus.
Let me know when you find a restriction on registrars.
Offlist?
