Agree with all the recent sentiments.
However, we can unfortunately go round on this on here until the cows come home and not effect change.
If you think my position paper helps the case, then please do whatever you can to get it noticed outside the domain community.
Do you have friends working for companies that would be impacted by the change? Or clients? Or do you work for someone that would be affected? Then let them know.
Do you blog, tweet or Google+? Then why not post about the issue in simple, clear terms that any business owner would understand.
Are you a member of non-domaining forums with a relevant audience? Then why not let people know what's going on?
Do you know a journalist, an MP, or someone with clout (e.g. a person with a HUGE Twitter following)? Then make sure they know about this issue.
And so on, and so forth. This has to be a collective effort if we're to have any chance at all of reaching a wider audience.
Hand on heart, this isn't about MY proposal. I really don't care if you want to re-iterate the issue in your own words, and you certainly aren't forced to link to my
http://www.mydomainnames.co.uk/ issue site. This is all about spreading the message.
Oh, and if you told some people yesterday, then tell some other people today. And other folks tomorrow. There are millions of people who will be impacted by this, so we're not about to run out of "targets"!
Slow and steady wins the race.
