We the people also have an interest. I've without shame grabbed the "Tony
Barry" name. I know of at least three other "Tony Barry's" in Australia,
one of whom I met at the recent WWW7 conference. I know of none in the
catchment for emu.id.au so I'm not too worried.

But worrying about the interior of com.au or id.au is not what I thought
this list was about which is - .au

Also I suspect .com.au is a passing concern.  Just wait till I'm worried
about powerswitch1.mainbedroom.tony-barry.emu.id.au or even
toaster.kitchen.tony-barry.emu.id.au

Tony
