Oops, mea culpa. MPAA is of course correct, lol. I need to put down my
CDs and pick up some DVDs instead...I'll split any DVDs that the MPAA
sends as a bounty with you 50:50, James. ;) It's too bad they're not
offering the same bounties that Microsoft offers...I would hate to end
up with ICANN's favourite DVDs as a prize...."Dumb and Dumber",
"Antitrust", and "Twelve Monkeys"...
While ICANN's updating their website, if they would post the annual
reports referenced in their agreement with VeriSign registry (Appendix
W), as discussed at:
http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/ga/msg00523.html
a month ago, that would be nice too. Given WHOIS is a hot topic right
now, folks need those reports in order to have an informed discussion,
let alone the transparency issue....surely a month is enough time to
post them...
