The less than 100 "demand" members do not accurately represent the view of over 3 million .au registrants. You can't accurately represent people who you have almost no engagement with. My staff, members who you continue to claim are illegitimate, speak to .au registrants on a near-daily basis...

Hosting, not domains. So domains are growing organically.

... and just like that, they've had a reverse in fortunes and are now seeing growth in both the domains and hosting market. https://www.crn.com.au/news/aussie-hosting-company-dreamscape-networks-cracks-60m-returns-to-profit-511654 Somebody call Benny Hinn, a miracle has just occurred!

I completely agree, but when it's a single class model it will be irrelevant. Because, per the constitution, that is where they are to be members. If they had applied as supply members they would have been knocked back by the board and changed to demand. Yes we did, at both a wholesale and...

As it has become clear in recent weeks, based on the existing constitution there are quite a few resellers and domainers who should not hold demand memberships, in addition to many of those who currently hold both. Price alone does not drive growth in any industry, especially one as niche as...

It's not always on a new registration. You saw just a couple of months ago there was a renewal campaign that happened but it wasn't very effective due to the convoluted process involved to check eligibility, and that also didn't assist any companies or their brands. Like I said, these campaigns...

LOL. If you don't support what they did to get Ned and Nicole on the board then go on record saying so. But until you do you will be painted by the same brush, much like you continually do to me. Economics 101, eh? I find it interesting because there was a permanent price reduction that came in...

Did you support members of this forum and others in this industry controlling multiple votes at prior meetings, through the proxy of family and friends being faux auDA members, in order to stack the votes in demand to ensure your preferred candidates were placed on the board? The answer is yes...

I support a constitutional change in line with the Government recommendations. My commercial entity has always financially benefitted from .au domain names. We're a business, we sell domain names, I think it's pretty clear-cut. The co-marketing fund has been in place for many years and...

Just got this email from the Chair of auDA, Mr. Chris. Leptos: It's great to see people being held accountable for their actions and it should be a clear warning to all that robust debate is perfectly acceptable but personal attacks, accusations with no proof, and outright lies are not. And...

I think you are getting yourself a little confused Scott. I don't care about Tim's position. What happened there is in the past and it no longer matters since he resigned. From what he said at the SGM it was an honest mistake, people make them, and that's where it ends for me. Section 9.4 is...

No. I support constitutional change. But keep conveniently ignoring the facts, it's done wonders for you so far.

Hi Scott, You cannot take definitions and apply them to sections of the constitution where it has not explicitly called for that definition. If you were able to do that then there would be no point having definitions in legal documents. The term "Supply Related Person" is defined and is used...

Noted that I am not your mate. Hey pal! Did the Government review not ask for more membership engagement from underrepresented stakeholders? Last time I checked, registrars have no representation on the board and are stakeholders. Wrong again buddy! The registry cost went down because the...

It has absolutely nothing to do with auDA. It was actually due to their ASX announcements on 13/02 and 22/02 where they said their earnings would be down. They claimed it was due to the market being soft, but it's a simple case of GoDaddy taking their market share (which the scorecards prove).

Listen mate, if you care to recall, my plea regarding the foreign ownership of the top 3 registrars and the registry operator fell on deaf ears to everybody here because you all thought that by getting rid of Neustar and bringing in Afilias that it would save you money on your portfolios. How...

How about you take the video down so that you stop misinforming your audience (and making yourself look uneducated on the topic), and re-shoot it with factually correct information? If you have a problem with foreign people being added to the auDA membership list then that is entirely your...

"One of the registrars that has signed up all their employees is Afilias" False. Afilias is not a registrar, they are the registry operator. This is elementary stuff. "The future of your business is now at the mercy of four registrars not based in Australia" False. Of the companies that were...
