[AusNOG] Embarrassing question!

[Fraser McGlinn]

I'd also throw in Metaname - https://metaname.net/public/pricing
Although they are a NZ based registrar, they offer .au domains.

They are doing some very smart stuff, supporting an API + 2FA + DNSSEC
out of the box (among others) and having really good support. I would
highly recommend them.
