Danny's point is well taken. It is not a statistical argument but a logical one. It also will stop some of the carpetbagging type problems we saw with dotLA and dotWS. What is good for fr may not be good for nz. cookie cutter accreditation also hurts innovation.

Do you have statistic data about the number of accredited registrars 
from developing countries? I think it's important to have such 
registrars, and your point about the money makes sense. At the same 
time, I know that private companies become 
distributors/agents/dealers for registrars and thus they manage to 
register quite a lot of domains. Yet, having a registrar would help 
local businesses in a number of ways.
