I have heard this "market speak" and these battles are difficult to fight, IMHO. They are all spreading FUD, making middle managers wonder if Tuvalu is the best domain space since toasters. Recently, my team was able to start the process to decom 6000 gtld names. The moment our counsel hears of someone reclaims one of those, there will be hell to pay.
As for US, Manning setup the only sane structure but it met with great disdain for some reason unknown to me. Too many dots is all I hear. Now it goes to the DOC and all those other three letters. Quite a loss to the community.

When I last looked into getting a domain in our state.us domain, I heard bad things about the registrar, and the fees, and the lack of transparency. It isn't just the dots - it would have really helped to have set up a truly competitive registration system for the entire .us space. Maybe it has changed by now... Regards Marshall Eubanks T.M.
