Not completely unrepresented.  I am such, and I do represent myself here
when time permits.  I know that some other legacy holders have views similar
to mine, but certainly not all, so you should be your own judge of how
"representative" I am.  Nevertheless, I'm happy for the chance to offer my
US$0.02 on the topic.

As I mentioned in the prop 133 discussion, as a non-LRSA legacy holder, I
can imagine no present or forseeable "problem" that these alternative
registries would serve to fix.  Indeed, I cannot posit any situation in
which it would be of any appreciable benefit to me ever, full stop.  I'm
left to wildly speculate that it would only really benefit someone looking
to carve out a new registry business model for themselves.

$0.02 as advertised,
Eric
