OK .. So I have a dumb question.
 
 
 
If they are allowed to raise it 7% a year, how did .net get raised by
 
10% ?  (3.50-3.85)

Hello All,
 
 
 
Don't forget to add the ICANN US$ 0.75 "registry-Level Transaction Fee"
 
for .net:
 
 
 
Ie
 
"Registry-Level Transaction Fee. Commencing on 1 July 2005, Registry
 
Operator shall pay ICANN a Registry-Level Transaction Fee in an amount
 
equal to US$0.75 for each annual increment of an initial or renewal
 
domain name registration and for transferring a domain name registration
 
from one ICANN-accredited registrar to another during the calendar
 
quarter to which the Registry-Level Transaction Fee pertains. ICANN
 
intends to apply this fee to purposes including: (a) a special
 
restricted fund for developing country Internet communities to enable
 
further participation in the ICANN mission by developing country
 
stakeholders, (b) a special restricted fund to enhance and facilitate
 
the security and stability of the DNS, and (c) general operating funds
 
to support ICANN's mission to ensure the stable and secure operation of
 
the DNS. "
 
 
 
This means that we will be charged US$4.60 by Verisign for each .net
 
name after 15 Oct 2007, instead of the current US$4.25.
 
 
 
I mention this as it has caused some confusion amongst Melbourne IT
 
staff :-).
 
 
 
Regards,
 
Bruce Tonkin
