Subject: [ga] GA-EXT ==> GA-ICANN, GA-INT ==> GA-RULES, GA-TM ==> GA-UDRP

As you know six mailing lists have been established to provide a ready forum
for GA discussion.  It is early days yet but some of these list have been
very successful.

However, some members have expressed a desire for clearer definition between
the two lists, GA-EXT and GA-INT.  These are meant to represent "external
relationships" and "internal processes" respectively.  Another list name,
that of GA-TM, could perhaps also be improved.

It has therefore been decided to rename three of the lists as follows:

(1)    GA-EXT will be changed to GA-ICANN.  This list will deal with
anything external to the GA but most particularly ICANN including its
structure and relationships.

(2)    GA-INT will be changed to GA-RULES.  This list will continue to deal
with rules, internal procedures and the like but the new name makes its role
a lot clearer.

(3)    GA-TM will be changed to GA-UDRP.  It is, perhaps, not true to
suggest that this list deals with "trademarks" as it only deals with the
effect of this issue on domain names.  This occurs mainly though the UDRP
process.

The new names are effective on 21 May 2001.

Any postings to these lists, or subscribe requests, should use the new names
from that time.  Members are encouraged to make full use of these lists to
conduct their debate. We are confident that these changes will help us all to
better appreciate the role of these new lists.

Yours faithfully
DNSO Secretariat
(on behalf of the GA Chair and Alternate)

Subject: [ga] List name changes again?!?

 To: indecisive list management

I have no problems with the number of lists and even don't much care what
they are called. But, once you create, name, and publish some list; LEAVE IT
THE F*** ALONE!

You see, I don't have a lot of spare time and I use automation scripts
extensively, both under Windows and Unix. Once I set up a list, I expect it
to remain stable. A name change forces me to update, at least, three
diffeerent places, on two different operating systems. Now, I realize that
this *is* my system but you don't have to aggravate the workload, by
excessive dither on your end.

I would suggest that you not make such statements lightly, especially if you
are unwilling/unable to back them up.  If you have a private conversation
with Mr. Younger, it is a private conversation.  Keep it that way.  If you
wish to have a private conversation with me, mark your message as [PRIVATE]

  No, I can not, but look to the time period during the elections where he
attacked Corliss for a conflict of interest, never recanted!  Also you may
take my word for it, not all communication between Mr. Younger and myself
are public, I look froward to meeting with him personally in the next few

      Could you point me to the quote from Danny Younger stating he feels

I agree that changing some sub list names is a problem for *all* of us, but
in the long run it will be a better arrangement for the debates.

Thanks, Bruce, but I think the field actually is
for strings: E.g. you can also claim common
law rights in a .biz domain, in which case you
wouldn't have a serial number. Additionally,
the serial numbers are likely to vary in
different countries. Currently, my guess is
that Network Solutions got it wrong (they have
also forgotten the number '17' in the date
fields...) -- I'm told it works when you use 
the IP Claims form at Neulevel's site.

But thanks anyway!
Best regards,

It does work with 4 characters at neulevel.com. I just tried for BIJT,
except for paying for it, naturally. The more I read about it, the
more I feel sick. An officially ICANN sanctioned lottery. They didn't
even have to set up an office on some offshore island for the casino.

Yep, you are right.  They also say they will not check to see if it is
correct.

A waste of $90.00.

And so it goes......

But I would bet that's where all the kick-back back accounts are.
