We feel the recent policy change regarding ip allocations for web hosting activities is unfair to the smaller web hosts of the world which do not have all the technological capitalization to smoothly implement host header routing without putting undue burdens on the consumer. Therefore, we feel this policy change is directed at protecting the larger hosts from loosing clients as fewer potential clients are going to be willing to experience "downtime" as a result of switching hosts if the move will not be a seamless one--it will NOT be seamless if IP-less hosting is forced upon smaller web hosts because there will not be enough free IP's for potential clients to post the website they are moving to the new host byway of an IP address, but, rather, they will have to wait for the domain name to be transferred via the NSI registry before they can even publish the website files; and then their site will be visible in some places in the world and not others over that 24-48 hours that it takes the Internet's DNS system to propagate. Hmmm, my dad was a class action plaintiff's attorney and the one thing I picked-up from him was when you can spot a great class action suit in-the-making!!!!!!!!!
