Subject: [ga] Domain names as observed (was Tucows Response to   Cochet tiTransfer Letter)

===8<==============Original message text===============
Joop, may I say once again that there are no "property" rights in a 
domain name itself.  Rights in the use of the name are conferred 
by the registrar/registrant agreement and that is where a registrant 
should look prior to registering the domain.  However, just because 
a domain name is not property, per se, it does not mean that there 
are no rights in it.  Again, those rights are determined by the 
registration agreement and can differ from registry to registry.
