There is news trickling in that the Wait List Service (WLS) has been approved by ICANN at the current meeting in Rome by a 12 to 0 vote!
(It was scheduled to be negotiated today:
Saturday, 6 March 2004 Item 3: WLS Negotiations with VeriSign )
Verisign will have to give a three month notice to registrars before they impliment it.
This is going to change EVERYTHING and put backorder services out of business.
(little wonder why the SnapName creators got out of the business)
I'll post URLs with more info as they become available.
(by the way, there was supposedly a webcam of the meeting here but its not working, at least for me, right now)
ps. expect the lawsuits to start flying even more soon...
