Hi folks,

See the press release at:

http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release_html_b1?release_id=234250

We have until October 15th to avoid the price increases.

Of course, VeriSign tries to make it look like 30 billion queries per
day is a lot. One need only look at: 

http://system.opendns.com/

(1 billion queries/day lately, operated free) to know that 1 billion
isn't what it used to be. I'd be curous to know how many DNS queries
are handled daily by GoDaddy, NSI, Amazon, eBay, Google, Yahoo,
Microsoft, Akamai, etc., and whether their technology costs are rising
7% per year....

Sincerely,

George Kirikos
