    [nom-announce] CEO Announcement

    I've read and re-read this diatribe and still the phrase that I object to most is the description of Lesley Cowley as 'frumpy'. When will some kinds of men stop using a woman's physical appearance or dress sense as a put down? Or a 'phoar' moment? What does Ms Cowley's appearance have to do with...

    AGM / Vote

    I'll take that as a compliment. Totally barking might be more accurate :-)

    Nominet call about voting

    If requested Nominet will abide by the statutory requirements and provide a list of members names and addresses but not phone numbers and email addresses. The last time I asked for this was prior to AGM1 and it was provided in hard copy. Hopefully it is now provided in e-copy if requested.

    Indulge an idiot and tell me what 'the penguin thing' is? A sentence or hyperlink will suffice.

    Not a situation that I like. A cynic might suggest that the new Registrar Agreement is designed to take the secondary market world of domain name trading out of the hands of individuals and consolidate the industry in the hands of a few major players. IMPO this is not an improvement on the...

    So you did Julian. My apologies for forgetting that. I didn't take it seriously as it was never seriousloy for sale.

    I don't hate the individuals Julian. I've met several and most are quite pleasant people. I just don't like the business model.

    2014 Board Election

    That's because I am quite a polite person in real life. Having said which I do accept that not everything that 'domainers' do is evil. But I do live in Happy Hippy Land aka The Heart Chakra of the Universe. A bit of fluffy-duffy idealism en-route to Burns the Bread is normal around here. Only...

    Nobody has ever made me an offer for glastonbury.co.uk. PS - it isn't for sale

    I can do that. It is a strong personal belief. I also have a strong personal bias against capitalism in general and members of the Tory party in particlular. None of which has ever prevented me from working with capitalists or sharing a pint down the pub with Tories. I've long given up any...

    2014 Board Election

    Yup. Those are my words. I stand by every one of them. If any of you can convince me that domainers add any value for the end user then please do go ahead?

    I like to know what others are thinking. Plus I have an enormous amount of respect for Edwin & Stephen for their stance on direct.uk.

    2014 Board Election

    Yup. I think I have called domain name traders the Buy-to-Let Landlords of the Internet and suggested that I would support any obstacle put in their way. I'm not a big fan of Estate Agents either :-)

    2014 Board Election

    It is an industry and I do not like it. But I rather suspect it is an industry that is here to stay. So much as I'd like to eliminate it from reality I am enough of a realist to know that aint gonna happen. Leaving me pondering on how best to accommodate such an industry within the context of...
