If they were controlled by Registrars the situation would be far worse. > BTW, if btuser.net means you work for British Telecoms, congrats, No, in a sense it means I am a USER of BT's services. BTUSER.NET is a "neutral" domain which I use in order to be able to speak here without using my normal work account. > And you should renew the fee for that btuser.net domain, it goes to > a godaddy.com spam page telling this domain is for sale at $1.99. ;-) To keep things neutral, that domain has just a GoDaddy parking page. You may have misread the advertisement, it says that GoDaddy has (other) domains at $1.99: the btuser.net domain is not to my knowledge for sale. Regards, -- Richard Co-Chair, RIPE AA-WG
