You are correct that no one will lose their co.nz name and if you have a co.nz name, under the proposed policy no one can get the equivalent .nz name without your permission.

I just noticed this today.. http://finch.am/scratch/dnc_discontent.png (This is what the advert looks like) It was an adwords advert I presume targeted towards NZers. Which links to.. http://dnc.org.nz/2ld-policy-amendments?gclid=CIzyxuPd1rwCFcEnpQodmFUAOQ Does anyone know who is paying for these adverts . As far as I know the new 2LD domain policy won't result in people loosing their .co.nz domain names. (Is this "false" advertising?) Thanks Craig
