As discussed in issue #49, I created a simple registrars page for namecoin.info. At least to start with something and needs to be reviewed.

@phelixbtc can you vet this? Any objections to throwing it into production?

Well, I didn't get the kind of bump I was hoping for, sorry for the drama : (

There are a few things I would suggest rewording.

"No need to extend the domain yourself" -- change "extend" to "renew"

Under disadvantages, I would replace the first one with the following list:

"The registrar could steal your domains if its operators are evil."
"The registrar may be a larger target for cyberattacks, and a successful attacker could steal your domains."
"The registrar could be pressured by a legal or extralegal attacker to hand over your domains."

Also add the following disadvantage to the end of the list:

"Registrars can charge substantially higher fees than you would pay by registering domains yourself."

Also, I would strongly suggest having this on bit.namecoin.info rather than www.namecoin.info since it's .bit-specific rather than general Namecoin use.

I'm with Jeremy and Indolering in that this should go to the .bit site. Close?

@phelixbtc Can we keep this open until a PR is opened in the bit.namecoin.info repo? That way it's less likely that we (read: I) will forget about it.
