To register .web domains at webtld.com was a gamble.
I
think that it is obvious that if IOD's application is refused,
all the 20,000
registrations are useless...However, let me tell why I registered a few .web domains.
I
did register them because I realized that
IOD's history, situation and application
were so strong that
I could not imagine how ICANN could refuse IOD's application.
While
Afilias and Neustar have no ACTUAL merit - they have a
project on paper only,
IOD has PLENTY of merits and rights on .web .
Please notice that:
First - I
understood that IOD deserves of .web ;
Second - I registered a few .web domains.
I
claim to be a generic Internet user,
so I believe that all generic Internet users
understand
that IOD deserves of .web .
IOD opponents usually accuse:
"You
support IOD because you have an interest in this,
since you registered .web domains
at IOD" ;
This accusation MUST BE REVERSED:
"I registered a few .web domains
AFTER
I saw that IOD is the right and proper choice for .web".
