As far as I can tell, I made no accusations and I dislike you linking my name with them, especially given the nature of your complaints.

There is no one best approach to domain name problems, because there are many competing jurisdictions in which to resolve these disputes. Most of the issues we have dealt with so far have involved domain names registered in country code TLDs that do not follow the UDRP procedures, and I have recommended in those cases that SPI find local pro bono counsel in the country in which the domain is located. However, where UDRP is available, a cease and desist letter followed by arbitration is usually the most efficient and inexpensive option. If you forward me the the information about the disputed domain and the relevant correspondence, I will take a look.

I don't understand it and I'm not happy about it but I accept it. A market almost always makes better decisions than an individual. If the majority of the Debian project doesn't carry a grudge about the SPI accounting mishap then I guess I can't either.

Will the outgoing DPL do this for the domains which triggered this enquiry, please?

Re: feedback, please: what was good, what bad?
Andreas Schuldei, I've heard both grumbles and praise from people who have worked on things with you. On the whole, I liked the sound of most of your ideas and think they could move debian on. I was slightly disappointed with proportion of -vote emails answered and a weak showing in the IRC debate. I'm not sure how clearly your ideas were expressed to people who hadn't seen similar things before. -- MJR/slef http://people.debian.org/~mjr/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I haven't said anything about this because I didn't want to look stupid (as if that ever stops me from doing anything) but I never received my ballot. I even did the "Leader 2005" subject thing (or whatever) to request a resend. I was convinced that it was my spam filtering or some nonsense but I still can't find it. I'm at a loss. I'm pretty much 100% sure that this is a problem on my end but now my curiosity is piqued. -- Ean Schuessler, CTO [EMAIL PROTECTED] 214-720-0700 x 315 Brainfood, Inc. http://www.brainfood.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I can't tell you much about the leader 2005 thing, but the ballot is normally sent out on debian-devel-announce and debian-vote, so you should have received it there. If you didn't get it there, you can still get a copy of the ballot for the archives (if you can vote, you can fish it out of the archives on master:~debian/). Alternatively, there's other places that archive our lists that will probably give you a working ballot (ie, gmane and so on). As a last resort, you can probably copy-paste the ballot from somewhere like: http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2005/04/msg00022.html I'm guessing that'd work too.

I just confirmed this with Manoj, whitespace changes are ok as long as you don't change newlines. Cheers, Pasc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
