Subject: NIC billing for AMPR.ORG
The Internic is attempting to bill me $50 for renewal of the AMPR.ORG domain.
I *PERSONALLY* refuse to accept the charge. From my point of view,
they just decided to bill me because no one else's name was handy.
And I don't want to handle money for this; I get enough abuse from hams
without accusations of malfeasance and diversion of funds that are
inevitable in such cases.
The bill appears below.
So, what to do? I'd appreciate suggestions. Some things (that are
or are not practical) occur to me:
+ we could try to appeal to the Internic that AMPR.ORG is a special case
and we should get it for free, much as hams get allowances worldwide.
They might even make it a corporate donation.
+ we could refuse to pay and try to get a legal injunction against them
deleting the domain name based on some aspect of contract law maybe
+ we could find someone who is willing to handle the collection of
donations and pay them
+ we could each send one penny (or whatever the smallest coin of our
respective country is) individually to the Internic in payment
+ we could attempt to obtain a new domain name that isn't under the
aegis of the internic - in some other country, or maybe an international
domain, or the like
Suggestions? Volunteers?
