I assumed that you meant 2Day Internet, which is why I refered to changes that you are wanting to make.
My interest is contributing our experience and resources into a specification which can benefit the entire industry.
I've no issues with that, but Domainz is part of that industry too.
It would be helpful if a technical resource from Domainz could be made available to participate.
If this is an ititiative of the NZOG group[, then again, I have no issues there. As I admitted in my posting, I do not know the who/what/why of NZOG, nor had any formal invitiation to be involved. Are you formally inviting DOmainz to join on behalf of the group?
What has become clear to us as ... your delivery has been woefully inadequate. Sorry Patrick, but I for one do not believe a word you say.
I note 2Day Internet's personal views and claims. Sorry Peter, but I do not believe our delivery has been "woefully inadequate". Is this the view of NZOG? If the point of your seeking Domainz input is to politicise this group, to make Domainz into a political football to push 2Day Internet's or your own personal agenda, then I want no part. I therefore need to re-assess my responses above. Can someone tell me who is the spokesperson for this group please, what its objectives are, and whether there is a need for DOmainz to be involved?

Sorry, but thats not what I said. I post it again below:-

From Domainz standpoint, I would ask that if you know of areas of weakness, or areas that you wish to improve, then you draw up a list to forward them directly to me.
We think our time and that of other providers would be better spent on working together to come up with a specification. It would be helpful if a technical resource from Domainz could be made available to participate.
Clearly we are continually looking at improvements to the process, and any thoughts that you do have, we would like to harmonise them inside our own development priorities where sensible.

What has become clear to us as your largest billing customer and manager of
nearly 10% of commercial domains in NZ, is that whilst you say you are
interested in improvements for the benefit of Internet providers, your
delivery has been woefully inadequate.
Sorry Patrick, but I for one do not believe a word you say.

To NZOG members,
I've just been forwarded this note seeking your input for changes that Peter
wishes to make to his applications.
directly to me.
Clearly we are continually looking at improvements to the process, and any
thoughts that you do have, we would like to harmonise them inside our own
development priorities where sensible.
We also have to take into consideration the wishes of others that may not be
members of NZOG (I do not know much about your, your role nor your composition,
excuse my ignorance).
My regards,
