Memo to John Markoff: There are No "Do Overs" in History by Milton Mueller
Think for a moment of the enduring legacy of African slavery in America. Think of the way it tainted this country's culture and politics; think of the bloody Civil War, the ghettos and race riots after emancipation, the distorted interpersonal relations, the segregated housing patterns. What if we could roll back the clock and ensure that our society was "designed" so that slavery was never permitted and never happened?

ICANN Con Rocas (or 'ICANN On the Rocks') by Graham Chynoweth
ICANN Meetings can be an intimidating place for first-timers or even those who have only attended for the few years. The acronyms fly fast and furious. The participants, or at least most of them, have been working on the issues for years (even decades). The technical and policy issues are complex. Luckily, however, an attendee can overcome these barriers to entry with a few drinks at the hotel bar.

Domain Name Dispute Update: Cybersquatting Trademark Protected .net Domain Names
A search of the uniform domain name dispute resolution policy decisions by WIPO and NAF of .net domains reveals the following results. It is no surprise that .net domains are heavily cybersquatted along with the .com heavyweight. In many instances, companies that have registered their trademarks or have common law trademark rights find themselves being cybersquatted by the same registrant on both the .com and the .net variations.

SIDN verliest kort geding tegen Lycos
SIDN, de .nl-registry, heeft het kort geding dat ze tegen Lycos had aangespannen verloren. SIDN had Lycos gedagvaard om haar te dwingen de voorgenomen staking van haar hosting services op zaterdag 28 februari a.s., uit te stellen. Gezien de korte termijn waarop de voorzieningenrechter uitspraak moest doen, zal de volledige motivatie van het vonnis pas over enkele weken bekend worden gemaakt.
