So, there have been a fair number of releases so far, many of them to early bird registries like donuts.
Suppose you're a small registry looking to launch further down the track with an extension that's unlikely to set the world on fire. Would you be feeling nervous by now? What do you have to lose, apart from credibility, $185,000 and any work you've put in so far to promote your offerings (very little)? How many will be tempted to pull out before they throw good money after bad?
Those in it for the long haul might just be thinking that when the market is flooded with new keywords, when domainers are not the main target audience and end users have got used to the idea that .com is not the only party in town, they may just have a chance to get their money back.
I wouldn't bank on it, would you?
