===Donuts Responds===
Donuts responded via [[Jon Nevett]] in a written letter to the U.K. GAC representative that it later made public on its website. It argues that it would be a better steward of [[.rugby]] as it has no vested interested other than in the health and security of the [[TLD]], and not in the rugby related content. They note that .rugby seems to essentially be seeking community status even though it did not choose to apply as a [[Community TLD|community applicant]]. It further notes that it believes their threats that they will file objections in an effort to see their competition, including Donuts, thrown out. Mr. Nevett notes that he understands the logic and looks forward to a debate about what constitutes a legitimate objection. Lastly, Jon emphasizes that it is not up to governments to pick winning and losing applications for gTLDs, despite the fact that [[ROAR Domains]] and its partners seem to hope they can do exactly this.
