Did Ben actually own the slashdot.com domain, as in - Did he pay for it and get a receipt from NetSol etc?
According to NetSol : Registrant: Andover.net (SLASHDOT6-DOM) 50 Nagog Park Aston, MA 01720 US Domain Name: SLASHDOT.COM Record expires on 11-Apr-2003. Record created on 11-Apr-2000. Etc ... Of course ... If he speaks to Netsol et all about this they'll probably fob him off with excuses and general pass-the-buck etc. on 30/05/2002 14:26, Dan Knight at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I've never enlisted the power of the lists in this way before, but a > grave injustice has been done against MacSlash, a Mac-related site I and > many others visit daily. > > Sometime yesterday, Vicente Peiro Crespo of Valencia, Spain, used Dotster > to wrest control of the slashdot.com domain from Ben Stanfield, the owner > of the domain and one of the people who runs the MacSlash site. > > At this point, all attempts to contact Dotster to fix this have been > ignored and the MacSlash site is inaccessible in most of the world.
