CoCCA and APTLD edit
In October 2012, Miller issued an email on CoCCA's behalf, critizing that APTLD, an association of regional ccTLD operators, backed AusRegistry because AusRegistry is one of its largest donors. His email said, "That AusRegistry, a large for-profit company that is an associate member of APTLD can simply make a phone call to a board member and get the board to make a public submission on behalf of all members that a scheduled public tender be cancelled and AusRegistry be awarded the contract – worth as much as several hundred million dollars, because they have made substantial contributions to the APLTD in the past and are likely to do so in the future if awarded the contract is, in my view, disturbing." Miller and CoCCA believed that the .au contract, which AusRegistry currently holds, should be opened up to competitive bidding. According to Domain Incite, however, Miller's view is the minority view. Under the consultation of AuDA, the policy overseer for Australia’s .au domain, numerous other registrars have supported the recommendation for AusRegistry to keep the contract.[1]
