Subject: RE: [DNS] NetRegistry expects apology from Joshua Rowe ?????


If one cannot express an interest in the views of other parties and
request
clarification on particular issues surrounding an industry, anyone in
their
right mind would be asking, and should be asking very loudly, for what
is
the purpose of this list?

Josh simply asked a question. Chris do you plan on responding anytime
soon?
We're all interested to hear this. L. Bloch is clearly too uptight to
provide an explanation rather than a defence. The explanation he's put
forward being identical to what Net Registry staff have handed out
aimlessly
(and unconvincingly) in an attempt to fend off all enquiries relating
to
unsolicited advertising over the past two days. SO one has to ask, is
it so
far out of the water to question this situation???

Questions should be asked and they will be asked again and again until
a
clear concise answer is provided and that is not an unfair expectation
from
anyone in this industry or the general public.


Cheers,

Peter Ostenberg.

Subject: [DNS] NetRegistry expects apology from Joshua Rowe


Joshua,

I take exception to your subject line, implication and lack of
courtesy in
not contacting me and instead jumping to incorrect conclusions
publicly.

NetRegistry doesn't spam, the email was sent after a telephone contact
by
NetRegistry to an individual at Australia Post, and sent to
information
taken from public whois based on the domain name the contact was made
on. It
was not known at the time that the admin contact for the domain name
was not
the email address of the intended recipient.

You send an email addressed in the first line to myself and the CEO of
auDA,
and yet you copy a public list. An apology is in order.

Please account for your reasons for defaming NetRegistry in this
manner.
What is your agenda?

By your own reference the definition of spam is:

Definitions of Words We Use
What is spam?
In the case of electronic mail, spam is any electronic mail message
that is:

Transmitted to a large number of recipients; and
Some or all of those recipients have not explicitly and knowingly
requested
those messages.

Please either point out the large number of recipients or provide me
with a
public apology and retraction on this list.

Regards

Larry Bloch
Chief Executive Officer
