Subject: If you actually read the .POST proposal - I urge ICANN Evaluation Team to read it

Message:
 

 
The .post domain is not a restricted domain just for the Posts. It is restricted only in the sense of the policies required to protect individuals and businesses in their everyday communications.

Those that have taken the time to comprehensively read the .post application will understand the value that the Posts can bring to the Internet and the general public. It is clear from the ICANN Staff Evaluation report, that the .post proposal was not clearly understood. The primary concern expressed by the Evaluation team was the lack of detailed business plans for individual services to be offered using the domain. However, we must emphasise that it was not a requirement for the application to do this. This is evident from the other applications, where the business and marketing plans concentrate purely on the issuance of domain names.
       
In due course we can provide business plans and strategies for each initiative that we undertake with our partners and other key market players. However, no single business plan can reflect accurately and comprehensively the scope of our vision and ambition to develop a global, social and economical infrastructure that can be trusted and made available to the most modest citizen.
