Message:
I know from personal emails with several registrars, many are regretting their involvement with Afilias Ltd. and involvement in the .info rollout.  It seems that Afilias Ltd. communicates only a little more often with its approved registrars than it does with its customers. But we can't expect many to be openly critical of their business partner Afilias Ltd. due to the terms of their RLA. Some will be more willing to share their experiences and opinions openly after the removal of the ICANN and Afilias Ltd. board members and executives responsible for the selection process which awarded the .info registry to Afilias Ltd. and for permitting the travesty of the Afilias .info rollout. Only the removal of the current personnel responsible for the apparently corrupt culture of ICANN and Afilias Ltd. will permit the development of a new ethical business culture, one embodying accountability and responsibility, on in which the Internet community can have justified trust and respect.
