I think as far as Verisign is concerned, they might not be an ongoing
concern in 2007, so why worry? They need to do something to get their
revenues up or risk the wrath of wallstreet:

At $6/year per domain registered, VGRS makes the lion share of money in
the domain registry business for .com and .net. Yet, they are losing
$20MM per last quarter (or more, they lost over 200MM in 2003) And only
have about $300MM in cash . And their revenues are falling.
