Re: [ga] RE: GA irrelevant

["Jeffrey A. Williams" <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Andy and all,

  I noticed that the old IDNO website, http://democracy.org.nz/idno
is no longer up and running but appears to be 'Parked',
see: 
http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/whois?ip=democracy.org.nz&server=&j=1&email=on ,
which 'may' indicate a future attempt to resurect is being considered.  
However I did notice that http://www.idno.nl/
was up and running, yet it doesn't appear to be at all related to
what the IDNO that we are all familiar with was.  I also noticed
that IDNO.NET is for sale, see: http://sales.domcollect.com/?domain=idno.net
for $895.00 should anyone be interested. >;)  Perhaps the IDNO we were
all too familiar with has gone 'Down under' or is seeking fresh funding
to rise from the ashes?? >;)  If the latter, I for one wish them good
luck and gods speed and hope that they find NEW leadership that will
provide for a successful endeavor. >:)
