after two glasses of wine, take this advice for what it's worth. tell them you're going to sue. make a very careful (notarized if possible) record of the fact that, as of this minute, that domain is expired. record the fact that you tried to register it and were refused, and were not given a reason. now, assuming that they're still not going to budge, sit back and check in on that domain on a regular basis. the instant it is assigned to someone else, *now* you haul their asses into court, with evidence that you tried to register *before* the current domain owner. this situation is not new -- it's been going on for some time, and verisign are little more than thieves. i know -- they scammed me in a weak, inattentive moment bu sending out letters that *looked* like renewal forms but were, in fact, domain transfer forms, and i got suckered. if there were any justice, the people who run verisign would be in the cell next to ken lay, bernie ebbers, dick and george and five justices of the u.s. supreme court. but, hey, that's probably just the wine talking. rday -- redhat-list mailing list Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
