I don't disagree, but my thoughts are along the lines of what Peter said. I certainly don't want the RIPE community to be associated with the ripen.cc domain, but if the RIPE NCC wants to use it (or at least reserve it), we might think it's a mistake, but it's the company's mistake to make unless we get into a level of micro-management that I think we, as a community, delegate to the Board. As you say, YMMV, E&OE, prices of domains can go down as well as up. Cheers, Rob
