it can confuse consumers , for example someone registring with click'n'go will access the whois info and see that the domain name is registered with <insert click'n'go registrar(s) here> , not with click'n'go. Just a thought, nothing major..

Don't you think that in the whois info having the registrar displayed is confusing, especially the ones going through resellers ( and since there are lots of resellers, there are lots of domain names ) ?

At the | moment the average domain buyer has up to four shysters taking a clip - auDA, | AusRegistry, Registrars, and Resellers. Would it not have been more efficient to have | eliminated the Registrars at least? Well, I don't know if you want a serious answer if you think everyone is a shyster... Anyway. auDA did not decide to have registrars. It held an open Competition Policy Development Panel which accepted submissions from anyone interested, and based on submissions developed a model that was most desirable. There are really only three parties. If you choose to use a Reseller instead of going direct, that's your own fault. There will also be people reselling products no matter what it is. kim --------------------------------------------------------------------------- List policy, unsubscribing and archives => http://www.auda.org.au/list/dns/ Please do not retransmit articles on this list without permission of the author, further information at the above URL.
