Sorry for replying to my own e-mail, but just to clarify that the policy proposal is you have six months to say you want the .nz name registered or reserved. After six months if you have not done so, then the name can become generally available. Also this only applies for names registered before the policy proposal was announced.

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.

Subject: [nznog] Interesting Adwords Advert..
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..
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
