Edwin to his credit did bring this matter up as the first point to be discussed at several of the Nominet roundtable meetings in London, much to the suprise of the Nominet management.
I think that the nominet staff just got carried away with the success of the short auctions, desire for growth and the panic created by the thousands of the new ICANN gTLD's plus the fear of being left behind as not being the 4th largest registrar in the world!
I hate that word 'growth'... Has nobody realised that it's just a modern word for 'greed'!
I still don't understand why Nominet feels the need to be so competitive on the world stage. It's only competitor in the UK is .com and anyone needing a domain for recognised use in the UK comes to them... what more do they want?
Seems like their concerns are not following their original remit which I should hope was to serve the UK population with a namespace. Not serve the UK namespace.
