Michael Twist of AusRegistry (who actually won a ticket for newdomains.org on domainincite.com's raffle) wrote an article on our conference on CircleID (and of course the Ausregistry blog). He comments on the urgency to catch up with the timeline and not to miss the boat.

Thanks, Michael - we were really pleased to be your host! ...click for more
