Who can lodge a ballot application? In order to lodge a ballot application, applicants must satisfy the normal com.au and net.au eligibility and allocation criteria in the Domain Name Eligibility <http://www.auda.org.au/policies/auda-2005-01/> and Allocation Rules for the Open 2LDs (2005-01). In brief, this means that: * applicants must be registered to trade in Australia (eg. company with ACN, business name owner with RBN, trade mark owner with TM number, sole trader with ABN); and * the geographic name must be an exact match, abbreviation or acronym of the applicant's name, or the applicant must have a "close and substantial connection" with the geographic name. I guess each company warrants a "close and substantial connection" _____ From: dns-bounces+rod=ddns.com.au§dotau.org [mailto:dns-bounces+rod=ddns.com.au§dotau.org] On Behalf Of Dave Sent: Wednesday, August 31, 2005 10:35 AM To: .au DNS Discussion List Subject: Re: [DNS] Australia's luckiest man? He's paid out $1000 to register the company and he's paid out about a $1000 for the release fee that's $2000. How many would have paid that figure to abide by the rules! Not many I would think. Do the maths on that one! I'm sorry but I don't understand your point. Are you saying that we shouldn't expect someone that spends that sort of money to abide by the rules? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
