People who have been hanging around the Internet for a fair bit will
be a tad gun shy of low bid proposals.  The transition from SRI NIC to
GSI way back when was ... distressing.  It is very easy to
underestimate what the registries do and what they require and the
results of such underestimations have fairly serious repercussions to
the operation of the Internet.  "Choose wisely"...
