I did not mean to put blame on anyone, except perhaps myself. I had forgot how it played out in detail. Anyway, there are ways to transfer the domain ownership without risking losing it. One of the best is to use the same DNS registrar for both the old and new owners. https://support.loopia.com/wiki/How_do_I_change_the_owner_of_my_domain_names%3F --jakob -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe

Hi Jakob, our mails just crossed ;-) > "someone" registered that domain for PicoLisp, then did not renew the fee. Yes, javuchi messed it up somehow, but it may not be only his fault. It seems to be possible that domains are stolen during transfers even if all fees were properly handled. We had this once with with "software-lab.org", which we hosted at Strato (strato.de), and which was stolen during a transfer many years ago. :( Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe

I see ... but I must say that the 'random junk' looks pretty good, with a different title like 'PoetsClub' or so it would make a nice webpage. > On October 27, 2014 at 9:49 AM Thorsten Jolitz > wrote: >> >> Hi List, >> >> have you seen this website: >> >> , >> | http://www.picolisp.org/ >> ` >> >> Its a nice looking website, but I cannot see no connection to PicoLisp >> whatsover.

Hi Thorsten, > have you seen this website: > > , > | http://www.picolisp.org/ > ` > > Its a nice looking website, but I cannot see no connection to PicoLisp Yes, I was wondering too. I've seen that quite some time ago. A few years back, the domain picolisp.org was stolen at the very moment Javier (javuchi) tried to transfer it to me (before that, it was owned by Jakob Eriksson). > whatsover. Or does 'picolisp' have other no technical meanings to native > English speakers? I think the above site is evil. They probably use tons of such stolen domains, and automatically generated Titles like "PicoLisp", to drag attention to them. As I see it, they offer dubious (or illegal?) writing services. > Even the camel case they use is the same as in PicoLisp, maybe Alex > should sue them for copyrights violations ... ;-) I don't see a chance ;-) ♪♫ Alex -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
Re: Strange PicoLisp site
"someone" registered that domain for PicoLisp, then did not renew the fee. When it was expired, the domain was snatched (like most expired domains are) by one of these companies which do nothing else but buy expired domains and resell them. The boilerplate text is just random junk to keep the page in google's index, to keep the value of the domain up a tiny little bit. --jakob On October 27, 2014 at 9:49 AM Thorsten Jolitz wrote: > > Hi List, > > have you seen this website: > > , > | http://www.picolisp.org/ > ` > > Its a nice looking website, but I cannot see no connection to PicoLisp > whatsover.

Strange PicoLisp site
Hi List, have you seen this website: , | http://www.picolisp.org/ ` Its a nice looking website, but I cannot see no connection to PicoLisp whatsover. Or does 'picolisp' have other no technical meanings to native English speakers? Even the camel case they use is the same as in PicoLisp, maybe Alex should sue them for copyrights violations ... ;-) -- cheers, Thorsten -- UNSUBSCRIBE: mailto:picolisp@software-lab.de?subject=Unsubscribe
