Big blunder IMHO, both from a PR and email-recipient perspective, as we'll
be accused of spamming the first email that goes out.

Opt-in makes sense.  How to get registrars to carry the invitation?  Short
of some incentive I don't at the moment see, buying advertising out-right
should be included in our budget plans.

(Keep in mind, if we carry ads or any message via accredited registrars and
registries, there is a chance that ICANN will require placement of its
competing messages, for free.  Again, a reason why I am concerned with the
"at large" brand.)
