In the last seven years I've lived in three different countries. I
couldn't keep my .de domain because I couldn't find somebody
interested in being the administrative contact (has to be a German
postal address). I couldn't keep my .nl domain because of the same
reason. Then I thought it was time to swallow the pride and get a
domain which was global.

My work addresses are all locally these days. That's one US domain
and a handfull of Australian domains.


I see that you're starting to fight the person instead of fight the
ideas/text I write. Interesting change of direction :-)

My private domain is registered at Gandi.net, a french registrar.
Specially chosen for that reason.

I sometimes wonder if people who register .au domains have to pay
a tax to keep the root-servers up and running.  I'm pretty sure you
can answer that question.
