Thanks, Volker. An op-ed is, by definition, an opinion piece. It's supposed
to be an argument in favor of one viewpoint on an issue, just as any op-ed
that a registrar or other entity/person also might have submitted would
have been. If you think anything I wrote is inaccurate, that's one thing.
But op-eds are -- as the name suggests -- opinion editorials designed to
present one side of an argument. Articles by reporters are supposed to
present both sides. Op-eds aren't, and mine was not intended to.

Cheers,

John Horton
