"A VeriSign spokesman said the company was pleased with the deal. ``It
certainly provides us clarity to move forward in our business and gives us
the focus we've been seeking,'' said spokesman Brian O'Shaughnessy."

Let me see, now.

ICANN negotiated changes to the contract.

DoC then negotiated Further changes to the contract.

And this is the contract that our friendly ICANN staffer Joe Sims said was
NOT NEGOTIABLE at the Melbourne ICANN meeting.

I'll keep this in mind whenever I here anything that Joe Sims says.

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?
