New Zealand found guilty of Reverse Domain Name Hijacking

Seems like someone didn't have their facts straight, or even their
departments.
I would have thought it more accurate for entities such as the New
Zealand Tourism Board to be going after that domain, and not the
government itself. At least they have a valid reason to use the mark,
even if said mark doesnt exist.
Still, what're you gonna do? Have a giggle, I suspect.

Hi Good grief - the reverse of the rather bizarre newzealand.biz ruling! It's really nice to have a *Uniform* Dispute Resolution Policy provided by ICANN, ne? At 14:21 19/12/2002, you wrote:

Bad form to reply to self, but I've just been reminded that in the .biz case the holder 'rolled over' by not making a case so there wasn't actually a ruling in the sense of this one. My apologies - my brain must be winding down as countdown to holiday speeds up. chrs Sue <snip> --- Sue Leader - To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
