Subject:	Proposal analysis - Affinity's NAME LOTTERY AND HIGH FEES
Message:
We find that this proposal falls far short of the proposed "proof of concept" RFP. Here are 2 principal reasons that are excellent example of the inappropriate TLD Policy & philosophy which pervades this application. TLD string & subsequent restrictions: The string proposed is far too broad & encompassing for the pricing restrictions indicated  ($2,000). This descriminates significantly against small businesses (especially in emerging global economies). The concept of a "Name Lottery" as proposed in this application is repugnant and without merit in this process
