[registrars] .COOP agreement

[Marcus Faure]

Hi Ross,

it is OK to take a closer look at where people are coming from, though
I had hoped that the community support we provided over the past years
has given us some credibility. In any case, "closer look" should also
include the argument itself. I do not feel comfortable that the
statement is rejected just because it comes from someone who knows
both sides of the business.

Yours,
Marcus
