I agree with Kim.  I think he is pointing out that having the new
registry/ies designed to incorporate things like Records Management 
makes a lot more sense than retrofitting things like that into AUNIC.
AUNIC seems to be close to the end of its life (at least as far as
being a com.au registry is concerned).

PS: Could people please change the Subject: header when the thread
goes in a different direction.  Especially when there is a change
between international and .au (which is on-topic for this list).
