Alas I tried last night and nothing showed up, I must be doing something wrong?

Whois-Search

James Conaghan posted this on Nom-Steer today in reply to Leo Vegoda:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you mean the £3,000 appeals fee? Which is something I would like to
resolve. I personally think £3,000 is a heck of an obstacle to "justice" for
those who cannot afford to appeal decisions that go against them; and it is
my humble opinion that most ordinary people do not appeal for that very
reason.

Whilst I understand the logic that it might cost a lot more in court,
Nominet and/or the DRS is *not* the court so the argument is a little
irrelevant to someone who just hasn't got the £3,000. I had hoped that DRS
was 'for the people' but it seems to be only for those with the deepest
pockets. In a community led environment, is this the best a community led
registry can do?

At least James (a current Nominet PAB member up for re-election) sees sense.

Michael Toth had no chance to get 3k to Nominet on bounce.co.uk !
