In my case, I did it to learn, and because I did have a small business going as well. Learning how to run that also directly led to my current job... helping run my ISP's mailserver (among other things).

Besides, all you are really doing is creating another Verisign... not something we want.

No, no no no no! Not Verisign at all, please do not bash this idea with the evil doers! All the details would have to be worked out for the best interest of everyone. Don't confuse a registrar proposal with Verisign, even though they may do something in the same, IMHO Verisign needs to be assimilated. -- Robert Blayzor, BOFH INOC, LLC rblayzor@inoc.net "Oh my God, Space Aliens!!
