I guess we need to go through the list of afilias authorized
registrars (you must be afilias authorized to submit to landrush) and see who is
not offering a landrush and make sure that afilias is not allowing these registrars
to participate in landrush. Most of the ones I've seen are offering a landrush of
some sort so this may not be as big a problem as some have suggested. There are a
few who haven't opened yet for landrush (alice's registry for example) that appear
to be only offering a very short list for the landrush.Here is a list of afilias
authorized registrars:
