Re: [ga] Most Popular Invalid TLDs Should Be Reserved

Oh, I forgot to link to the actual report with the "oversight" (or intentional 
snub):

Hi folks,

I noticed that ICANN's SSAC finally published a study on the invalid TLD 
queries 

at the top level, following on my post from June 2009 on the GA list, and on 
CircleID:

http://www.circleid.com/posts/20090618_most_popular_invalid_tlds_should_be_reserved/



I find it odd, though, that my name and work went unacknowledged in ICANN's 
report, even though it was the impetus of the work, they were aware of it, and 
it pre-dated their work. I trust that they will correct this oversight (or 
snub) 

at some point. They were quick to add their own names to it, though, even as 
their contributions were smaller than my own.

Sincerely,

I wanted to followup on the past discussion from:

http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/ga-200709/msg03025.html

Did the SSAC decide to study invalid TLDs? I didn't find anything posted on the 
SSAC website or in the Sydney transcripts (although not every meeting had 
transcripts), and it's been some time since Sydney.
