a. net.au policy isn't the same as com.au (Melbourne IT).  I believe it is
slightly less strict on this point.

b. I believe "generic" words which form a prominent part of the business
name are now allowable under even com.au policy.  That said, its been a
while since I bothered to read the policy on this since our clients don't
seem to listen when we tell them there isn't much chance of getting a given
domain registered anyway :|
