Frelling right I do, and it's driven me totally farbot.

Because complainants never make an error about what Nominet said, or even try it on, do they? So this must be totally true, and accurate, of course. (That was 'sarcasm'.) Why on earth do you spend half your time whining about complainants apparently inventing things, until it suits you, when...

A mate told me there was a thread from KS that I should come anbd see, but it's gone. Do threads often disappear like that? What did it say? Someone pm me the content!

Exes and excess Yes, I'm in the process of leaving Nominet for reasons that I'm sure will become apparent when I publish my resignation letter. (Well, parts of it. Nominet's confidentiality clauses are tight, and they have a legal fund commensurate with their surplus and the MD's bonus...

Guys, I think I'd be fair insaying that my email was taken somewhat out of context, and that I was genuinely trying to help Lee. As I've pointed out here before, I post here only in a personal capacity and my views aren't Nominet's (the 5 minutes for this post will need to be added to the end...

Answers Here are some straight answers to some ofthe Qs above: 1. The experts will often have PRSS in their day-to-day role as IP specialists. We don't provide them with it except by the normal contract/payment route. 2. The experts aren't *required* to investigate. My personal reading of...

>e.g. if domain was fraudulently transferred away from you (e.g. using forged >signature) and you find out several years later, then do Nominet have a duty >to return that domain to you and pay all the costs and damages (to return >the domain to you) of all the legitimate owners after that which...

Exactly as you say.

Suspension - we put an entry on the register which prevents the d/n from resolving (to anything). It removes it from the zone file, basically. So it stays registered, but doesn't function in any way. Cancellation - the name becomes available on a first-come first-served basis. Anyone can pick...

Some personal views 'S true. Some stakeholders lose sight of the fact that the Nominet they deal with isn't a monolith with the single purpose of disadvantaging them; it's a bunch a individual employees all trying their level, honest best to serve and represent the stakeholders (all of the...

1. IETF RFC say postmaster@ should be working, not necessarily webmaster@ or info@ ... 2. There are a couple of suspensions and at least one suspend then cancel. They tend to be reserved for when transfer wouldn't be appropriate (certain .me.uk and so forth). Often cancelllation would just...

We won't be publishing the appeal for a few days, allowing the parties to absorb it. The parties may or may not chose to publish it in advance (but might not if they feel it will detract from any action they might take in the future).

John, We (usually the team in Registrant Services, but sometimes in the Legal Depatment) will opt in domain names which aren't eligable to be opted out. We do this whenever we notice such names, without any favour or prejudice, because it's our job to ensure everyone works by our Ts & Cs...

Supposed to say 1987, of course. (And that's the one with the original sleeve, rather than the 'skulls in a cross' re-release.) I

By 1992 they'd risen and fallen. I think UYI 1&2 were 1992 (maybe 91?). They were probably the biggest band in the world around 1990. (The UK import of AfD was 1997). I'm afraid the bloated outfit touring with the bloated Axl really just isn't Guns. (As a purist, you could say even the AfD...

DRS contact We send an email to the address on the register, to anything obvious on the front page of any website, and to [email protected] DRS Procedure 2 fully explains the service process.

Oh. Oh dear. Now that is stats abuse. It's nearly as good as my current favourite stats abuse: the adverts for anti-wrinkle creams where the voiceover says, 'Effective in 75% of cases' (or similar), and the tiny text at the bottom of the screen says, 'Tested on a sample of 60 women. Results...

And I thought you were all techies... It won't work because tomorrow's date is clearly 060504 :0)

.org protest site One of the reasons it's .org, not a .org.uk is to make absolutely sure that if they wanted to complain (using the UDRP), the whole thing would be absolutely fair and neutral. I'm a great believer in fair and neutral. Edit: Agghh! The site's down. How did that happen...

I don't get it. It seems to be a system where the parties pay for telephone mediation with CEDR accredited mediators (at least one of who is already an independent expert under the DRS). Nominet's system offers free telephone mediation with CEDR registered (one up from accredited) or...
