All former DNSO GA members or other interested stakeholders/users,


  Somewhat contrary to ICANN's own "press release style" announcment,
Internet.com's more complete take tell a little bit different story!
See:

http://news.com.com/VeriSign's+antitrust+suit+against+ICANN+dismissed/2100-1030_3-5326136.html

Interesting excerpts:

"Matz had already tossed VeriSign's original antitrust claim back in
 May, telling the manager of the .com and .net registries to amend the
 document. If the weren't able to prove antitrust claims in court, he
 added, it didn't make sense to rule on the six breach of contract
 counts in the suit. "

  This would at least concede that ICANN is up to some shanagans
regareding breach of contract issues...

And...

"VeriSign lawyers vow the judge's ruling won't stop them from filing the

 same lawsuit in the California state courts, now that federal relief
 isn't possible."

   Well, well, well, I for one am not surprised....  It's not over yet!
