Re: [registrars] Proposed change to registration rules for .name (ie allow registration directly at the second level)

[Thomas Keller <tom@schlund.de>]

Hello,

sounds like an excellent idea to me, especially if you have a
look at the registration numbers of .name. Could someone from
the excom set up this call? If not I would not mind to contact
Becky to arrange a teleconference.

Best,

tom
