I wouldn't be cheering for ICANN, as they:
1. Should have made this statement on Day 1, or better yet,
PRE-EMPTIVELY, as they had been warned about SiteFinder's impending
launch before it happened (and had also seen the .biz example of
Wildcarding). This shows the continuing failure of ICANN, and its
impotence. This failure is evident in the WLS process, too, and should
be corrected there.
2. Did not go far enough, in insisting that VeriSign return all audited
GROSS revenues (that would include Overture's share, Paxfire's share,
VeriSign's share, and any other partners we don't know about) related
to SiteFinder. Hopefully this is an oversight that will be corrected
soon. It was point (d) of the petition at:
