What's the difference of a VC throwing in on the side of existing
registries, and someone else throwing in on the other side? Both
have their motivations and agendas. To call the VC's position any
less valid than anyone else's is gross prejudice. To call existing
registries "TLD grabbers" simply points out your prejudiced position.

Objectivity is a difficult position to maintain, isn't it?
