is there an Association for DN Professionals?

[Oceanic]

I was wondering if there is an associatin for Domain name professionals.
I heard about some convention going on and also of the Registrars groups but what about resellers, hosting companies and name traders lke most people here?

Any leads?

Yes, and I have just the name for you - NameBroker.org - picked it up within seconds of the drop. All other extensions registered in both NameBroker and DomainBroker.

Duke, it sounds awesome for a name!

I am willing to start the ground work. Will you "donate" the name?

Yes....as soon as GregR donates dolphins.com to me for a non-profit project I am thinking about doing.

What would be "professional" criteria?

a. Having sold a domain name?
b. Having a certain quantity of DN's.

What?

You should have to pass a domain name test

What?

I think registration should be open to any individual with some sort of a reseller account, verifiable at the registrar level.

The Duke said “..as soon as GregR donates…”

Wow, I did not know that all you had to do was ask GregR and he donates domains! Dumb me, I was waiting until I got enough money.

I am preparing my donation request list now and will reference it to this thread. Is there any special code word or other info I should supply?

If only you knew how much money you are going to save me.

TIA

Apparently this domain name conference was a huge success.. check out their site.. it'll post upcoming dn conference's and may also have links to resources your seeking.

There is a domain name conference in NYC at the end of the month.

http://www.domainnameconference.com/

* note.. this conference mentioned is a headline from LAST MONTH.. so that conference has passed, but they plan future events.
