Re: [ga] Is Dotster having liquidity problems? - Registerfly déjà vu

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ted and all,

  Well what do you or anyone else expect, take Dotster over?  Not
going to happen as most of ICANN's staff are policy wonks and
most of the old IANA technical staff is no longer around, except
Bill Manning.  Best thing that could happen here is have Vint's
buddy George Soros bail out Dotster.  How 'bout it Vint?

  Btw, watch GoDaddy they are going to implode.  And sooner
rather than later.  Than watch the lawyers come out of the
woodwork.

  So much for "Accreditation" eh?
