International domain names get a bit closer and more European-friendly
In early 2009, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) plans to adopt the update for international domain names (IDN) discussed since the beginning of this year. This became evident in the talks at the developers' meeting in Minneapolis this week. One of the new entries on the list of characters allowed for domains that don't use the ASCII character set will be the German "eszet" or "scharfes S" character ("ß"), which has been excluded from the IDN standards (RFC3490, RFC3492) until now.

IETF committee calls for a simple system for DNS security
The Internet Architecture Board (IAB), the central committee of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF, a standards organisation), is calling for a simple system for signing the DNS root zone, and for the interest groups of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) to be given a say in a number of operational questions. That would give the ICANN community an influence on, say, the continuous rollover of keys for signing the root zone.

ICANN Responsible for Domain Name Trademark Mess
It is ICANN's responsibility to make sure domain names do not infringe on trademarks. To determine infringement, ICANN should rely in the short term on predictive models [PDF]. Thus, domain name and trademark owners must start putting pressure on ICANN to assume its trademark responsibility.

Yes ICANN claim my domain name!
Companies can carry out online searches to see if someone has registered identical or confusingly similar domain names. For example, "namedroppers.com" and "amnesi.com" provide details of registrations.

ICANN Cairo 2008, We Didn’t Go But Please Accept This Classy Drawing As Though We Did
We were sadly not able to attend the ICANN Cairo meeting. Our reportage occurred the new-fashioned way, by following live transcripts which proved as frustrating as it would have been had we attended so, it was sort of like we were there. The conference spanned 8 days and had 1,702 attendees from 144 different countries. The key issues go-round were the implementation of the new gTLD system as well as IDNs and the IDN fast track and the much needed focus on improving institutional confidence.

With ICANN’s proposal to add thousands of new top level domains (TLDs), NetChoice executive director, Steve Delbianco, said it would create a monster headache for the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), charged with maintaining the “illegal” blacklist and so-called “inappropriate” greylists of content to be blocked.

ResellerClub to Take Over EstDomains-Sponsored Domain Names
Following their decision to terminate the registrar accreditation agreement for EstDomains, ICANN was looking for registrars interested in receiving a bulk transfer of all the domains maintained by the Estonian company. It looks like that registrar will be Directi-owned ResellerClub, which already started sending notification e-mails regarding the upcoming change to EstDomains customers.

Top 10 worst chief executives
... 10. Vladimir Tsastsin - Est.Domains: Shaun Nichols: It's not that Tsastsin did a bad job running his company, he did after all turn it into a rather successful registrar, albeit a notoriously shady one. The problem was that he also pretty much destroyed the company singlehandedly when he was convicted on several counts of fraud and money laundering. Though Tsastsin says he no longer holds the top position at the company and that he is appealing the conviction, ICANN decided that the case was serious enough to warrant pulling Est.Domains accreditation, effectively killing the company.

Whois Masking Considered Harmful
Whenever you register a domain name, your contact details are published in a publicly visible database called "Whois", where your contact details are instantly harvested by spambots and marketers who proceed to email and postal mail you marketing offers, deceptive "domain slamming" attempts, ads for dubious products, and perhaps even telemarketing calls. Nobody likes that, so over the years people started resorting to various tactics to protect themselves from the deluge of crap that inevitably comes with simply registering a domain name.

Sedo's list was led by a trio of six-figure sales; #1 LowFare.com at $365,000, #2 Banners.com at $360,000 and #4 Pisos.net ("apartments" in Spanish) at €150,000 ($187,500). The latter name also ranks as the second biggest .net sale this year, trailing only Porn.net, a domain that changed hands for $400,000 last February.

Technical difficulties continued to plague the auctions in Australia this evening (afternoon in Australia). Rick Latona’s auction experienced similar audio/video issues that Aftermarket.com experienced earlier in the day at their TRAFFIC Down Under auction. When the audio and video feed came in, it was quite clear Latona was agitated by the over 1 hour delay. He was heard saying before the event “Let’s go. We’ve got business to do.” He managed to knock out the list of 69 names in around 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Das zeichnete sich in den Diskussionen beim Treffen der Entwickler in Minneapolis in dieser Woche ab.
