Chuck:

    I am happy that VeriSign is on that track. I believe it is in ICANN's
best interest to stay with the current contract at this time.

It is my understanding that the reason for a late start in the negotiations
of a new agreement had to do with the fact that there did not seem to be any
realistic chance of accomplishing such a task.  There was not to my
knowledge any intential effort to delay the process.  In fact, delaying it
had very negative consequences for us in the investment community.  The
sooner there is clarity in this regard the better for us.

Keep in mind, we were pursuing a path of complying with the existing
agreement and were very close to finalizing tasks related to that.

1. Verisign started negotiations late, because that suited its purpose.

2. Verisign is refusing to extend the original contract, because that suits
its purpose.

3. ICANN's answer should be "you waited too long, so the original contract
stands".

End of story.

barcelona.com stolen, stmoritz.com stays. What's uniform about the UDRP?
We could ask ICANN to send WIPO a clue, but do they have any to spare?
