Resellers Barred From Offering .EU Domain Names經銷商不得提供。歐盟域名

In a somewhat specious statement on 22nd July , the .EU domain registry (EurID) said that any domain name reseller would be "completely excluded" from selling .EU names.在有些似是而非的聲明， 7月22日的。歐盟域名登記（ EurID ）說，任何域名分銷將是“完全排除”出售。歐盟的名字。

Now resellers represent very substantial sales for many domain name registrars.現在的經銷商佔很大的銷售額為許多域名註冊。 Thousands of web hosting companies act as resellers, seamlessly selling domain registrations and email services as part of their main web hosting plans.成千上萬的網絡託管公司作為經銷商，銷售無縫域註冊和電子郵件服務的一部分，其主要網絡託管計劃。

So is EurID likely to lose alot of business from their decision?那麼， EurID可能會失去大量的業務從他們的決定？ Are they shooting themselves in the foot?他們拍攝自己的腳？

I don't think so, and I'll explain why...我不這麼認為，我會解釋為什麼...

EurID objects to 'resellers' because "... regulation 874/2004 of the European Commission laying down the public policy rules concerning the .eu Top Level Domain states clearly that only registrars accredited by the Registry (EURid) shall be permitted to offer registration services for .eu domain names ..." EurID反對'經銷商' ，因為“ ... 條例二千零四分之八百七十四歐洲委員會制定的公共政策規則。歐盟頂級域名明確規定，只有經註冊登記（ EURid ）不得向登記服務。歐盟域名 ... “

Now a 'reseller' is obviously someone who sells a product or service purchased from a third party, in this case the domain name registrar.現在是一個'經銷商'顯然是有人誰銷售產品或服務的購買第三方，在這種情況下，域名登記。

But the thing is that many so-called resellers are acting as affiliates, ie as sales agents.但事情是，許多所謂的經銷商都是作為子公司，即作為銷售代理商。

Sales agents don't contravene European Commission rules because they simply introduce the customer to the accredited .EU domain registrar, where the domain is actually registered.銷售代理商不違反歐盟委員會的規則，因為他們只是介紹了客戶的認可。歐盟域名註冊，而實際上是域名註冊。

An example is CheapToRegister.com which has been offering European country domains, including .EU pre-registrations, for several months on behalf of the EuroDNS accredited .EU registrar.一個例子是CheapToRegister.com已提供歐洲國家的頂級域名，包括。歐盟預先登記，幾個月來代表EuroDNS認可。歐盟登記。
