Next, if you want to set up a competing RBL registry then knock yourself
out. Bring it up, politicize it the way you think it's right, and convince
others to use it. If its any good, I don't think Paul would cry alot over
it. Maybe, he'd breath a sigh of relief. I'm fairly sure he doesn't really
want the job, just filling a gap/need. Convince Paul that you'd do as good
a job as he does and he might even be your first customer.
