<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><br></div><div style="margin: 0px;">About the statement Milton is right to point out that that particular statement</div><div style="margin: 0px;">came from LACTLD and not RDS.</div>
<div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><br></div><div style="margin: 0px;">Getting involved with ccTLDs is a tricky situation and before we make any</div><div style="margin: 0px;">"official" statement we should find out more directly from the RDS people</div>
<div style="margin: 0px;">and also hear the other side of the story.</div><div style="margin: 0px; min-height: 14px;"><br></div><div style="margin: 0px;">No doubt any move to takeover the ccTLD administration in the way it has</div>
