Vic,

2 things.

1. I didn't say many people or indeed any people were against. I said, a significant number said they wanted to think about it.

2. Registrar poll - yes please. As I've said...happy to apologise if you are correct and 'registrars overwhelmingly voted for
opening the up top level .au space for registration'.

Cheers,

Chris Disspain
