Dear Registrars:<br><br>
This Email is posted in response to Paul Stahura's Email to Jon, as
follows:<br><br>

Subject: paid up, or not?<br><br>

I think all candidates running for election for a RC role should state
whether or not their ICANN payment obligations have been paid in full and
are up to date for each registrar for which they work/represent.<br><br>
</font>Please disregard my prior posting on this subject.&nbsp; My
response related to the voluntary *dues* we pay to the Registrars
Constituency.&nbsp; Paul was referring to the mandatory *fees* which we
must pay to ICANN.<br><br>
If a Registrar were to delay its payments to ICANN, it could build its
cash flow to enable it to play the &quot;Millionaire's Game&quot; of
&quot;Add-Delete grace period abuse&quot; (euphemistically called
&quot;Domain Tasting&quot;) to the disadvantage to other ICANN Accredited
Registrars who pay their fees in a timely manner.&nbsp; We know how
RegisterFly.com played the cash flow game, don't we?<br><br>
We certainly should be informed whether any nominee were playing such a
game.<br><br>
While it is unlikely that anyone would accuse us of being a millionaire,
I can affirm that Domains Only, Inc. has paid it's ICANN fees in a timely
manner;-)&nbsp; I would appreciate your vote for me to be Secretary for
fiscal 2007-2008.<br><br>
