VeriSign has closed down the long-running 'domain-policy' discussion list. Even the archives seem to be gone, before anyone could save them. http://lists.netsol.com/archives/domain-policy.html Bret Faussett and Michael Froomkin have good comments on this awkward way of closing a mailing list: http://www.lextext.com/icann/index.html and http://www.icannwatch.org/article.php?sid=173&mode=&order=0 Best regards, /// Alexander ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom Newell <tomnat_private> To: <DOMAIN-POLICYat_private> Sent: Friday, May 25, 2001 1:09 AM Subject: List deactivation > This list will be closed effective immediately.
