Then they want to actually give the paper to people so that they can use 
it.  One of my client's waited patiently for three months for a .org.au.
I explained the situation carefully when I started with the client but 
their memory gives out after the first month.  MM gave them a asn.au in 
no time flat.

Don't anyone say 'Ask KRE again.'  I refer you to the commandments as 
preserved and handed down:

I'm not busting on KRE.  I remember the bad old days of .com.au.  The .org.au
situation is now similar.  .org.au is a nice free namespace for
touchie-feelie organisations.  I like it that way... I just wish it were a
little more like .asn.au.
