This will definitely be a service that customers expect us to be able to
offer. I know that the .name registry is a bit out of sorts at the
moment, but please keep the pressure on them to offer this upgrade as a
normal part of their product. Customers will not understand - and they
would be correct in their thinking - when the registry processes for
this make it impossible or financially unattractive.

me@myname.name is the format that .name domain holders will expect. It's
what's being hyped as the "permanent" email address, and
me@me.myname.name is not the same...
