Thanks George

Needless to say our application to become an international gTLD registrar
has yet to be accepted - in fact we only couriered off our application on
Tuesday. The AFR article was written (or subedited) to suggest a degree of
certainty about the outcome that causes me to touch wood while crossing all
fingers. I can only hope its prediction is proven correct.

I thank Geoff Huston for his efforts via ISOC and the IAHC to get a stable,
competitive framework in place for the international DNS; and I note that
Telstra was the first Australian company to sign the gTLD MOU.
