Thanks for the information Tim. Would "passing off" of a well known industry forum like NZNOG be considered "extreme (enough) circumstances"? Does the DNC need a complaint in writing to action this? As for Will, go and sort it out with Sahil seeing that the pair of you are friends again. The rest of us don't care.
From the Domainz point of view, the only person who can legally cancel a domain name is the Name Holder. The DNC has the liberty to instruct us to cancel a name and Domainz itself has the right to terminate a registration, but only in extreme circumstances.
I suspect that this and many other names have been registered 'for a laugh' in the past and the details used in the registration are real, if not the registrants. If the person who is nominated in the registration as the Name Holder is not in fact the legal holder, then the best thing to do is let the name expire when it comes up for renewal, unless the Name Holder (as shown) can contact us directly and request that it's cancelled.

Michael,
1) I am not employed or associated with ConceptNET as you suggested in your December post. 2) I believe it is against the Shared Registry's Terms of Service to use the
whois for this sort of thing. 3) Domains are registered at a first come, first serve basis.
The above domain was registered on the 28th March 2003, when I was being very stupid and immature, which I am (slowly) overcoming, but you don't seem
to be helping.
Please send me proof that Sahil is making these claims off list, or send anyone else the proof for that matter, because simply, you are generally full of shit. Get your facts straight before you post.
If anyone from Domainz is subscribed to this list, or the DNC, please cancel
the above domain, as I no longer have access to it, otherwise, its there to stay until it expires...
And no, I'm not smiling.
Will Steele "^god"
