PAB A principle of CORE operation

      The most important guiding principle of CORE operation 
should be to ensure equity and equality among all the cyber-
citizens of the world. In this regard, I think, the "first come, 
first served" policy of yours is too natural and appropriate. 
I also hear that you are trying to devise another method of 
registration like the "Robin" -- all to ensure that. The majority 
of the selected registrars really do reside in such a righteous 
principle or policy. 
    However, it's quite deplorable to see that there are 
a couple of exceptions to this widely-held 'bon-sens' practice. 
One or two companies seem to take their registrarship to make 
an overnight fortune by setting a 'graded' or 'differentiated' 
pre-submission rule charging very high price for the top grade,  
while many others are even accepting free pre-submissions 
on the moderate condition that only after successful registration 
they would be paid reasonable amount of fee.  
    I would like to ask everybody of those authorities in charge of 
the new gTLD to immediately warn against such acts detrimental 
to the good practices and principles emerging in the cyberspace. 
If not respected, they should be duely excluded from participating 
in the registration process.
