Isn't it confusing enough to deal with the InterNIC, let alone telling a customer "Oh yeah, well we registered it with registry number 27.." I can probably speak for a _lot_ of people when I say that we will probably continue to do business exclusively with the InterNIC, no matter how cheap the others are: The InterNIC has proven itself to me to be reliable, stable, and in the case where problems _do_ come up they're very responsive. They basically started the whole ballgame, why change?

Citing "consistent and universal criticism," the IAHC announced that any service meeting financial and technical qualifications will be eligible to become a registrar. No lottery will be held.
1) URL, por favor?
2) So there will be an unlimited number of registrars? I thought that everyone meeting the financial and technical qualifications was _already_ eligible (if they applied), and that the lottery would determine which of them _became_ registrars.
Call me confused.
