Re: [ga] Capture by a Self-interested Faction

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jefsey and all,

 I believe it would be reasonable if 3com ask for 3com.com,
yet if granted and there is another whom is seeking it and
had sought to register it before 3com, than granting 3com
3com.com would be pandering to one of several
Self-interested factions and constitute a restraint of
trade violation which DOC/NTIA should disallow...
