But have they?...
Given it is the same small circle of names that keep popping up at each of the company's involved. I wonder whether the price that was originally paid to Afilias contained a significant amount of 'padding'...
So the reported cost reduction only arises because the game has changed...
A question has to be when and thus if the ISOC actually see the $1.14bn, wouldn't be surprised if most of it is in the form of IOU's or some other form that allows for future finance shenanigans (think of high grossing films which have failed to make a tax profit, yet all the parties are happy except those who were promised a share of the profits...).
