Hi All
The banks have been trying to get this for ages despite being told
it isn't needed. This is the 3rd time they are trying and I assume
they want to try and try and try again for 1000 times till they get it.
That is IMHO not the way to do things. I strongly urge everyone to
vote agaist the formation of bank.nz
regards
Lin
ps If you would like curry and beer this thursday night, see if
there's anything happening in your town at thursdaynightcurry.com
If not start up one for your town.

RFV - Request For Votes - bank.nz
InternetNZ (www.internetnz.net.nz) is conducting a vote to gauge
whether there is support for the creation of a new second level domain
in the *.nz namespace - namely bank.nz.
The details of the application and the entire process can be found at
http://www.internetnz.net.nz/dns/2nd-level-domains/ and it is being
considered based on the policy adopted in May 1997 for considering new
second level domains. The application from New Zealand Bankers'
Association and the InternetNZ policy can be found at this link.
Voting for this application will last 14 days from the date of the
start. The vote will start November 3 2002 at 23:59 and closes
November 17, 2002 at 23:59.
The application must receive at least 200 votes and at least 70%
support for it to enter the next phase which is a formal submission
process. This vote will not determine if .bank.nz 2LD is implemented,
only to see if it has wide enough support for it to continue in the
approval process.
Voting is available via a website or email and details of voting can
be found at
http://www.internetnz.net.nz/dns/2nd-level-domains/2ld021103-voting_details....
