agenda for new delhi meeting

[Milton L Mueller]

Carlos:
What NSI is doing is not "domain tasting" it is "front-running." In
front-running, when you request whether a domain is available through a
registrar the registrar immediately registers it and then you have to
get it from them. Much worse than domain tasting, imho. Do you want me
to change the agenda to discuss that?
