Afilias will begin 'bulk' challenging bogus names I believe on Monday,
January 14, 2002. (or very soon thereafter)
Once the names are successfully challenged, they will be re-released and a
random selection process will be used (similar to Landrush)
Again, more details will be provided when Tucows receives them.

Thanks

Rick
