Seizing Domain Names to Enforce Judgments: Looking Back to
Look to the Future by Juliet M. Moringiello [Univeristy of
Cincinnati Law Review/Widener Law School Legal Studies
Research]
Abstract:In this article, I analyze the opinion in Network
Solutions, Inc. v. Umbro International, Inc., the case that
sparked much discussion about whether an internet domain
name can be considered "property" of the
registrant. I argue that for the purposes of creditors'
rights laws, the characterization of a domain name as
property or not is essentially irrelevant because under the
laws governing creditors' rights, almost any right with
monetary value can be made available to creditors. The
thesis of this article is that judges can rework existing
laws governing creditors' remedies to account for new
technologies. Courts have been adapting such remedies to
novel assets for more than a century, and there is nothing
inherent in domain names to suggest that courts cannot do
the same with respect to them.

IANA TAR: Pressure by ICANN to be independent? by Brenden
Kuerbis
Last June IGP reported on efforts to develop a trust anchor
repository (TAR) to help bootstrap the deployment of DNSSEC.
A TAR would provide a centralized location where top level
registries could place public key information pertaining to
their zone’s trust anchor. The key information could be
accessed by secure resolvers to initiate the validation of
signed zone data. The TAR idea had been floated by several
actors in lieu of the difficulty of getting DNSSEC deployed
at the root. It seems that the TAR concept continues to gain
traction.

Domaincheck: DENIC makes available new information service
for querying domains [news release]
Starting 23 September 2008, DENIC will place at disposal an
implementation of the so-called "Domaincheck"
service. So DENIC will be the first domain registry to break
new ground in this field: It plans to substitute the
high-performance Domaincheck (DCHK) for the known
information service whois in the medium term. The DCHK
specification, published at the start of 2008, is based on
the IRIS standard (Internet Registry Information Service),
which needed several years of intensive work to be
established. As a member of the IETF Working Group CRISP
(Cross Registry Information Service Protocol), DENIC's

IRIS.

Kentucky Governor: All Your Gambling Sites Belong to Us by
John Levine
According to news reports, the governor of Kentucky has
filed a suit in state court to seize 141 gambling domain
names. His claimed authority is a 1974 law against
"gambling devices", on the theory that a domain is
a "device", and online gambling is taking money
away from in-state horse racing and the lottery. The judge
sensibly has said that he doesn't understand all the issues,
and has given all sides a week to submit briefs. Two
domains, highrollerslounge.com and luckypyramidcasino.com
have been reassigned to the state, probably by a registrar
who didn't understand the issues either. I have to say that
this is a phenomenally bogus case.

Cybersquatters: Gives the Web a Bad Name Again
Homesteading or squatting, pioneers or nesters, what you
call a practice all depends on your point of view.
Cybersquatting, as the World Intellectual Property
Organization (WIPO 2008) recently acknowledged, is still
with us and growing. According to WIPO, the number of
cybersquatting cases filed through its domain name
resolution service in 2007 set a new record. Cybersquatting,
or cyberpiracy as U.S. legislation calls it, is the practice
of registering as domain names the service names or
trademarks of others toward the end of profiting by the sale
of the domain names to others or by the use of the domain
names for other purposes.

„Recht und Domains – gesetzliche Grundlagen“
Wer im Domainrecht tätig ist, sei es passiv oder aktiv, dem
wird schnell auffallen, dass es ein eigenes Domainrecht gar
nicht gibt. Vielmehr werden altbekannte Rechtsnormen
herangezogen um den neuen Domain-Sachverhalt zu lösen.
Diese Serie soll einen kleinen Einblick in die aus
Praktikersicht häufigsten einschlägigen Normen bieten und
deren Bedeutung für die Welt der Domains.

.VILLE – Les extensions pour les villes sont une identité
locale sur l’internet Par Dirk Krischenowski
L’internet est maintenant depuis longtemps un canal de
communication essentiel et les noms de domaine sont le
principal lieu où maintenir une identité permanente sur ce
canal. Les sociétés commerciales comme les individus mais
aussi les services publics s’appuient sur des noms de
domaine faciles à retenir, les plus intuitifs possible et
sémantiquement compréhensibles. L’internet se répandant
massivement, les nouveaux noms de domaine sont cependant
devenus des ressources rares au sein des extensions
actuelles.

Les marques s'inquiètent du prix des nouvelles extensions
Internet
L'Icann l'a promis. Les entreprises pourront bientôt créer
des extensions de noms de domaines du nom de leur marque.
Mais les marques s'inquiètent. 300 000 euros pourraient
être nécessaires à cela.

Cerf: IPv6 o morte
Vint Cerf, padre del protocollo TCP/IP e tra i fondatori di
Arpanet, torna a parlare della sua creatura e del suo
futuro. E lo fa nella doppia veste di Internet Evangelist di
Google, ribadendo il ruolo centrale che la Rete sta
assumendo e assumerà nella vita di tutti, e di tecnico: se
è vero che Internet è e diverrà sempre più il fulcro
della società, occorre al più presto trasformare l'attuale
infrastruttura IPv4 in una più moderna basata su IPv6. Per
non rischiare che il futuro possa essere messo a repentaglio
dalla carenza di accesso.

Vinton Cerf alerta: Internet se nos queda corto
Vinton Cerf, el considerado creador de la World Wide Web y
actualmente uno de los vicepresidentes de Google, ha
advertido que si no se inicia pronto la transición hacia el
protocolo IPv6, las IPs actuales podrían agotarse en un
plazo de dos años, afectando al acceso y funcionamiento de
Internet.

Kínában elfogyhatnak az internetcímek
Sajtóhírek szerint jelentosen megcsappant a jelenleg
elterjedt technológia által biztosítható internetcímek
száma Kínában, becslések szerint a jelenleg
rendelkezésre álló spektrum csupán 830 napra elegendo.
Maci a málnásban. A problémára az IPv6 technológia
bevezetése nyújthat megoldást.
