gtld registrars as a whole, but he is also in regular contact with registrars in
the Asia-Pacific region. He is in a time-zone (UTS+10 hours)
that is complementary to the representatives in USA (Ross Rader) and
Europe (Tom Keller). Being 10 hours ahead of GMT Australia
is amongst the first to know about most things in the world
