PAB As a matter of principle for the 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 like
the "Robin process" -- 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 practices.
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.
Buying and selling established domain names is another stroy,
totally different from a quasi-public service for registering names
in the newly open domains.
I would like to ask the authorities in charge of the new gTLDs
to immediately forbid such acts that are detrimental to the good
practices and principles now emerging in the cyberspace. Those who
do not comply should be duely excluded from participating in the whole
registration process.
