I'm not talking about intended beneficiaries. I agree with your statement
when applied to intended beneficiaries. I'm talking about the character
of the preponderance of actual beneficiaries, whether measured by number
of domain registration events per unit time, or number of dollars of income
enabled by the speediness of the "fast update" VeriSign is now announcing.

Right. And I hope you are able to stick to that plan in the face of what
I think will be gigantic pressure, from both registrants and competitors,
to lower it.

I can't think of anyone who could do it better than you could, Matt. I
know I offered to help a while back, but we never really got started on it,
and after being named as a "sitefinder co-conspirator" in your lawsuit
against ICANN, I think I'll hold off on co-authoring anything with any
VeriSign employee for the time being.
