After seeing the Hover thread[1], wondering what everyone would judge to be the most secure non-scumbaggy registrar in general?

Fabulous.com for portfolio holders. If I recall correctly, you can design specific protocols to unlock/make changes to a domain with them with your most important domains. http://fabulous.com/informationcenter/index.htm?formdata%5Bq...

NameCheap.com is the best retail registrar imo.

I always use nearlyfreespeech.net

sometimes prq.se

I've been happy with DomainMonster.com. Put 1and1.com on your scumbag list.

gandi.net and dnsimple.com

Thanks. Gandi seems to be the forerunner in the other thread too.
