[CPWG] [GTLD-WG] Fwd: Famous Four "dead"

[Carlton Samuels]

Um, well, you know how it is. The response is going to be somewhat like
"historically, we've seen between 15-20% Yr-on-Yr market growth. And were
looking round the bend and see no reason why this will not continue into
the forseeable future. This slowdown looks to us like maybe a slight
correction, nothing to suggest any long-term weakness or diminished
prospects."

And the band plays on.
