[Policy-forum] INFORMATION REQUESTED

[Gregg Moscoe]

TO: Jeffrey Neuman, Neustar

Mr. Neuman, after you notified me that the 1900 domains registered by 
Bradley Norrish and his company Internet Registrations Worldwide (IRWW) had 
been investigated, that "inaccurate information" had been corrected and no 
further action would be taken, you received information from publicly 
available sources that...

1)  Mr. Norrish's company IRWW was clearly based in Australia, according to 
information provided in "who-is" and elsewhere.
2)  There was no record of Mr. Norrish's company being incorporated in New 
York, where the published address in "who-is" indicated.
3)  Mr. Norrish was listed as a director of the second largest domain 
service provider in Australia in an industry publication, and
4)  Many of the domains he controls are housed on nameserver with 
Australian addresses, potentially violating Commerce Dept. requirements 
that they be housed on U.S. based servers.

You have not responded to any of these contentions, nor disputed them in 
any substantive way.  Now, a couple more questions:

Mr. Norrish lists a Nexus 21 code.  What U.S. state, possession, or 
district is IRWW incorporated in?

Can you produce proof of his certification, as required under the usTLD 
Nexus requirements, of the information provided in the 
application?  According to the Nexus rules, Neustar is responsible for 
enforcing that.

Where are the nameservers NS1.REGISTRATIONS.COM.AU, 
and  NS2.REGISTRATIONS.COM.AU located?  The .AU is an Australian 
designation, but you indicated you thought they were in New Jersey?  That 
would be a bit odd.

The .US Policy Council seems to have neglected posting its minutes since 
January as well.

On the eve of launching your new cash cow, "kids.us", I think some answers 
would be appropriate.

Thanks for your attention and timely response.

Gregg Moscoe
