A reader wrote suggesting I draw your attention -- and perhaps the attention of your mailing list -- to a domain hijacking issue. A friend of mine, Leslie Harpold, published a well-respected blog/site called at hoopla.com. A few days ago her domain was illegally transferred to someone named Hubert Sarah in Berlin, seemingly on the basis of one fax to NetSol. Some details are here: http://www.textism.com/article/490 Today's update is here: http://www.textism.com/article/494 I understand this sort of thing happens with some regularity, but the sheer unwillingness of NetSol to fixing a breach of their own contract may prove to be of interest to your list.
