InternetNZ settles Melbourne IT claim over Domainz sale
Interesting tidbit in the minutes of the InternetNZ council meeting. InternetNZ approved a payment of $20,000 to Melbourne IT to settle a claim that they had made. I wonder what the issue was and how much they actually asked for?

parliament.nz 2LD application
DNC announced today that an application for parliament.nz has been received. My first thinking is it fails the "Does not conflict with, duplicate or cause confusion about, any existing 2LD..." requirement as most people would not understand difference between it and govt.nz.

InternetNZ members meeting
The InternetNZ members meeting was interesting last night. The major thing that struck me after having no involvement with InternetNZ for 18 months (other than being on the 2LD working group reporting in via the NZOC) it seemed like I have never left. Most things/issues/people are the same as before. Scary eh?

Whatever happened to familysearch.co.nz Vs God?
With the .nz Disputes Process workgroup meeting today it reminded me of the God vs little guy story from July last year. I wonder what occurred on this issue, I see the familysearch.co.nz is parked at FreeParking and still owned by the same person as before. Did God (or in this case organised religion) back down?

iwi.nz?
I was curious about what was occurring for the .iwi.nz consultation. It was on the agenda of the last NZOC of meeting. After making some calls I have found out that very little seems to have occurred. It is assumed that this is because the .iwi.nz registrants are not responding.
