Leefe. <http://www.auda.org.au/docs/auda-2002-07.txt> -- SCHEDULE D ELIGIBILITY AND ALLOCATION RULES FOR ID.AU The id.au 2LD is for individuals. The following rules are to be read in conjunction with the Eligibility and Allocation Rules for All Open 2LDs, contained in Schedule A of this document. 1. To be eligible for a domain name in the id.au 2LD, registrants must be: a) an Australian citizen; or b) an Australian resident. 2. Domain names in the id.au 2LD must: a) exactly match the registrant's personal name(2); or b) be an acronym or abbreviation of the registrant's personal name; or c) be otherwise closely and substantially connected to the registrant, because the domain name: (i) is derived from one or more words of the registrant's personal name; or (ii) includes one or more words of the registrant's personal name. -- At 12:28 +1000 14/6/03, Skeeve Stevens wrote: >My initial reaction was he shouldn't be able to...
