I considered several alternatives and finally selected Gandi.net as my
new domain registrar.

There were cheaper alternatives but Gandi comes highly recommended and
the fact they serve as the registrar for the Electronic Frontier
Foundation was a deciding factor for me (I trust the EFF to do their
homework and choose reputable vendors). To both Godaddy and Gandi's
credit the transfer of my domain was smooth and swift.

Until January 15th 2012 Gandi has pledged to contribute $1 per inbound
transfer to the EFF:
