“As auDA looks to the future to become better connected and engaged with its members and stakeholders, the breadth of experience that Boardman brings to the position including his extensive policy development, commercial and international skills, will ensure the organisation will be exceptionally well led into the future,” auDA chairman Stuart Benjamin said in a statement.
“This is an exciting time for auDA and the broader domain and digital community. The board is looking forward to auDA re-positioning itself as the leading advocate of the .au domain space and ensuring its members and stakeholders views are integral as the National Innovation and Science Agenda continues to be implemented.”
National innovation and science agenda??? auDA's job is "Australian Domain Name Administration" - Nothing more and nothing less - cut the bullsh$$
Members and stakeholders have spoken and they want a new real domain name industry qualified auDA CEO, real domain name industry qualified New auDA Board and real domain name industry experienced New auDA Chair to
get the auDA focus BACK ON .AU DOMAIN NAME Administration.
- Wholesale .au price reduction as per the 2008 contract renewal terms. Supply registrars, Supply resellers and .au domain name registrants have been ripped off for too long! What has auDA done to enforce the 2008 wholesale price reduction requirement - NOTHING! Why? Who is on the auDA Board?
- Update RDNH policy
- 1 to 10 year registrations
- FREE COR as most extension have always allowed
- Cutting auDA financial waste and lower wholesale .au pricing to stay globally competitive and "innovative". Reduce wholesale .au pricing and give the Supply Registrars / Resellers the chance to make some money instead of auDA and 100% foreign owned wholesale registry contractor Ausregistry who have made hundreds of $ millions from unfair no competition contracts!
- Etc.
