Meaningless storm in a teacup. Funny how it got 500x as much press attention as Nominet's .uk land grab plans...

Part of the feedback I provided asked about retrospective names, given the language is evolving at a huge rate and the "youth of today" (showing my age!) are turning the meaning of terms we've all used for years on their heads what happens when my innocent term that has been registered for years gets "youth'd"

I proclaim "direct" is an abusive and offensive word to me.
