    That&#039;s a good question. I don&#039;t think it would be a problem for the French public. As long as .FR works and is growing, and I don&#039;t see why it should be. Some clichés, like the ones about the French always been on strike, are often overdone in the foreign media... &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.stephanevangelder.com/templates/default/img/emoticons/wink.png&quot; alt=&quot;;-)&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt;

    How would the French public and stakeholder community react to a non-French entity managing the namespace?&lt;br /&gt;
I remember the issues we all faced back in April &#039;92 when we had to spend the night in EuroDisney due to strikes. Has the French public moved on?&lt;br /&gt;

    Bonjour,&lt;br /&gt;

Lecteur assidu de votre blog, je me permets juste, en tant qu&#039;étudiant en RI, de vous dire que la Chute de l&#039;URSS date de 91 même si sa dissolution effective date de décembre 91...&lt;br /&gt;

Pour le reste, bravo, cet article est toujours aussi intéressant que les autres...

    Weird things have been going on with this auction. Moments after I published this post, the best bid had been brought back down to 150,000 Euros. Maybe someone cancelled a bid or there was a computer glitch, who knows? Since then, the price has gone back up and the current best bid is 500,000 Euros. There&#039;s still a little over a day left…

    Voilà une vente qui se révèle bien chaotique. Peu de temps après la publication de ce post, les enchères sur dollars.com avaient été ramenées à 150 000 euros. Pourquoi ? Mystère. Une annulation d&#039;enchère peut-être. Ou une erreur informatique sur les systèmes de gestion de l&#039;enchère… Depuis, le prix est remonté, mais sans revenir à son précédent niveau. L&#039;enchère actuelle est à 500 000 euros.

    C&#039;est une problématique trés intéressante qui est soulevée ici.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Je pense que de la même manière que des capitaux et des ressources d&#039;origine étrangère peuvent venir dynamiser une entreprise nationale, c&#039;est une chance qu&#039;il ne faut pas sous-estimer de voir la gestion du .FR ouverte à la concurrence.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Si des candidats potentiels présentent des références et un dossier solide visant à assurer la pérennité et le développement de l&#039;extension sur le long-terme - et quand bien même ces candidats seraient étrangers - il faut leur donner une chance. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dans tous les cas, je doute que les piliers de l&#039;AFNIC soient balayés pour autant si les étrangers ou d&#039;autres venaient à remporter un appel d&#039;offres. ce serait alors une formidable occasion de combiner le talent de ceux qui ont fait vivre cette extension jusqu&#039;alors et de ceux qui peuvent apporter un sang neuf en termes de gouvernance, de gestion technique et de stratégie marketing et commerciale.

    Sorry Stephan, but this is such a &quot;French&quot; post &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.stephanevangelder.com/templates/default/img/emoticons/laugh.png&quot; alt=&quot;:-D&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don´t see why a French Registry operator should be better than a foreign one just because it is French &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.stephanevangelder.com/templates/default/img/emoticons/wink.png&quot; alt=&quot;;-)&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Furthermore, in Denmark Afilias is only sponsoring DotDKRegistry just like they did with DotAsia: if they are awarded the contract, Afilias will only run the technical backend, but the Registry will still be based in Denmark and they will be in charge of deciding their own policies, and that is what really matters, and what makes the real difference between the .DK, the .FR and even the .IN cases and i.e. .CC, .TV or .NU which basically sold out their TLDs and retain absolutely no control over them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think it is only positive that governments are finally starting to take their ccTLDs seriously and impose requirements of efficiency and reliability on Registries that have been consistently delivering below-average systems and weird policies &quot;just because they could&quot;.
