Garth is an active At Large participant and will be in Costa Rica. He has invited dialogue at least with me in the past. I am happy to make an introduction at any level. I know Garth appreciates the opportunity to pose his views and results of his research.

This is something we've discussed previously, but as I recall we had trouble getting past high level comments, and discussion of implementation problems. Given the assertions in this article, I wanted to ask if any team members have any comments or views? Does anyone know if what is suggested is technically possible - i.e. basic scripting tests? http://www.circleid.com/posts/20120216_most_abusive_domain_registrations_are _preventable/ Kind regards, Peter ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- NOTICE: This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
