AFAIK, ".cx" software is NOT free software (free as in free speech,
not free as in free beer). They claim it to be "open source", yet
there is no evidence that they comply with requirements such as the
"Open Source Definition"
(http://www.opensource.org/docs/definition.php).

They also keep mentioning OpenReg ("CoCCA OpenReg is based on core
specifications recommended for the .au Registry") while the software
has nothing to do with OpenReg.

In short, I question their honesty.
