 I am suggesting we co-operate.
 My claim to .FCN as a TLD is in
 trust for the benifit of the greatest
 number of people possible. You are
 working for the same ends. There are
 other people out there who will help.
 Please let us not pass up an opportunity
 to accomplish something positive.

 Will you agree to work with a group
 towards making FREE.NIC a reality?
