The hard part is accounting for the way that people break html. :) The .ie should, theoretically be easier to parse. The personal names domains might actually create a boost because of the less expensive requirements in proving entitlement. At the moment, it would require an RBN and some argument. The problem is that IEDR might have left it too long as it no longer has control of .ie policy. That control legally passed to ComReg on 15th May 2007 when that legislation was enabled as the result of a Statutory Instrument. The stats should be appearing soon Richard,
