It was on a quick trip to the rubbish when I saw in Vodafone red big large ‘FREE’ words. Well, this had the desired impact and that bit was opened.

Catalyst IT is a good company, however... no separation has now occurred from the design, implementation, initial operation and now full out source of the SRS. Guess Catalyst is set for life now as would be very hard now for another company to get this contract off them with all the in house, and all likelihood some undocumented, knowledge. I think that even with Catalyst IT being a closed registrar is a conflict now based on what they are doing for NZRS. 9:19:12 PM      Like to comment? [] © Copyright 2007 Foxbane Ltd and Steven Heath.
