Hello kb,
I see your perspective but other registrars that have resellers (i.e. enom)
already offer those services. And those registrars also have low pricing
like OpenSrs i.e. ~$10/domain year. Which means as a whole opensrs resellers
start out at a disadvantage. Which is overall bad for the OpenSrs
organization which obviously filters down to be bad for their resellers.
To me the idea of limiting OpenSRS to not offering the extra services is
like closing ones eyes in the face of danger and thinking because you do not
see it, it is not there.
so ...
other registrars already offer those services
then the only people you might have an advantage over in terms of
differentiation would be some other opensrs resellers
which boils down to: bringing down your community so you can be better than
them although the community as a whole is lower in standard than everyone
else ...
not a cool idea to me
later
David
