Subject: who is information policy

The lessee should determine what information is to be made available 
to the public it is no ones business but his business. Any other 
disclosures to other parties should be determined by the privacy acts 
that apply for that particular country. 

I am a reseller of domain names, I have 23 of my own domain names, I 
do not resell au domain names  getting one is too restrictive, too 
expensive most of the world dont know where, what au stands for and 
frankly does not care. The 2yr sign up is a money grabbing exercise. 

My system allows you to show your details or choose not to, and sign 
ups from 1 to 10 years. I do have problems with australian and global 

I am also an educator to the small business market, The message I deliver 
to this market is dont be a fool signing up for au domains for the above 
and other reasons.

If you wish to put au domain names on the map throw out all the 
restrictions and educte those to the likely pitfalls on a continuing basis
