Re: Cheap Domain Registrations

Hi again,

The was a rather informative thread somewhere on HWG not long ago the talked
extensively about the new SRS. Try doing a search.

Also, WWW.ICANN.ORG is kinda of the home base for all this.

Regarding two people registering the same name with different registrars:

All registrars are accessing the same database, the 'Shareed Registration
System"). Before any registrar connects a live search is done on the
productive database.
