Sue, I know it's short notice, but, can we try and get someone from ICANN to explain at Chicago why they haven't pulled Verisign's contracts for malfeasance? Further, can we get someone from Verisign to explain how Verisign plans to correct these actions and stop taking unilateral destructive actions with the public trust? This has real operational impact, and, it certainly needs more coordination that Verisign has so far been willing to apply.

No chance of it ever happening, correct? =;] Allen Dear Network Solutions(R) Customer, Did you know that current rules require all domain name service providers to list the information you provide when you register a domain name in a public database known as WHOIS? To help you protect your personal information and online investment, I want to let you know that Network Solutions is campaigning for stronger privacy protection in the domain name industry. As part of this effort, we have developed a new site, www.InternetPrivacyAdvocate.org, which outlines the steps we are taking to protect your personal data. The site also offers helpful tips for what you can do to keep your private data even more secure. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) is the non-profit corporation responsible for oversight of domain name registrations and for accrediting domain name service providers. As an ICANN-accredited registrar, we are also required to request that our customers verify, and if necessary, update their WHOIS contact information. Customers are responsible for ensuring this information is current, and ICANN mandates that outdated contact information can be grounds for domain name cancellation. View the WHOIS information for the domain name(s) you have registered with Network Solutions, and if necessary, update your information. To help protect your privacy, we have added enhanced capabilities, which allow you to select the Administrative and Technical contact information you would like listed in WHOIS through your Network Solutions account. To learn how to assign WHOIS contact information and about other actions you can take to protect your personal information today, visit www.InternetPrivacyAdvocate.org.
