Brist
på domännamn avhjälps
av Jon Fahlander, DN 000711
ICANN ska snart besluta om utökat antal toppdomäner
Internet
får sju nya domäner
av Lilian Almroth, DN 001117
"Efter två dagars diskussioner har Icann, den internationella
domännamnorganisationen, enats om sju nya toppdomäner.
Bakom två av namnen står svenska intressenter."
Europe
claims place for .eu in cyberspace
av Ian Black, Guardian 020326
"European integration moved into cyberspace yesterday, challenging
national pride by enabling citizens and businesses to have .eu websites.
The introduction of a new .eu internet domain will create a truly
European identity in cyberspace for EU internet users. At present
the websites of EU institutions use .int. But .int is based in Los
Angeles, and it cannot be used by businesses or cross-border interest
groups which want to be clearly identified as European. Many Brussels-based
organisations using the Belgian .be would like to make the switch."
ICANN
Approves VeriSign Agreement
av Elizabeth Hurt,Business2.0 010402
"The group charged with overseeing the Internet naming system voted
Monday to extend VeriSign's rights to manage ".com" and ".net" addresses,
in exchange for releasing control of ".org".
ICANN
Completes Contracts for ".biz" and ".info"
av David McGuire, Newsbytes 010430
"Internet addressing authorities have cleared one of the last major
hurdles standing in the way of two new global Internet domains - ".biz"
and ".info." The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
(ICANN) announced over the weekend that it had agreed to contractual
terms with NeuLevel and Affilias, LLC -- the companies that will be
charged with operating the first new generic top-level domains (gTLDs)
created since the advent of ".com," ".org" and
".net" more than a decade ago."

UDRP,
Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy
ICANN
"Providing an efficient and cost-effective means to resolve domain
name disputes, the UDRP has been applied in more than 4,000 cases
and was voluntarily adopted by more than 20 country-code top-level
domains."
Index
of WIPO UDRP Panel Decisions
WIPO
Sökbar databas över UDRP caselaw.
"This Index currently covers over 1 500 WIPO UDRP decisions. Additional
decisions are being added continuously."
UDRPlaw.net
av Patrick L. Jones
Sökbar databas över UDRP caselaw.
"UDRPlaw.net is a resource on domain name disputes and domain name
dispute resolution policies, specifically the the Uniform Domain Name
Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP). It also provides news and information
on trademark issues, Internet law, ICANN, monitoring, registration
and legal issues."
UDRPinfo
"Welcome to UDRPinfo.com, a web site maintained by Professor Michael
Geist of the University of Ottawa
Law School. The web site provide a variety of practical policy and
statistical information relating
to the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) of the
Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). The web site also includes links
to UDRP providers, policies,
decisions, panelist profiles and an e-mail update service. A helpful
search tool is also available
to access to information relating to individual panelists, their decisions
and related statistical
information."
Country-Code
Domain Names and Trademark Rights
av Douglas J. Wood, GigaLaw 0205
"Country-code domain names (ccTLDs) such as those ending in ".uk"
and ".tv" can cause headaches for trademark owners worldwide, who
must contend with varying rules and laws. Unlike the gTLD system,
in the ccTLD world governments or their designated ccTLD administrators
set the rules for ccTLD domain name disputes and other forms of intellectual
property infringement. Some do not even have standardized registration
procedures or any limitations on who can register a domain within
the country's ccTLD. In addition, unlike gTLDs, ICANN's highly successful
Uniform Dispute Resolution Procedure for trademark disputes involving
domain names does not govern ccTLD domain names.
Intellectual property owners need to put as much pressure as possible
on ICANN, WIPO and the ccTLD administrators to ensure that they recognize
the dangers inherent in the dual system and work diligently to remedy
them."
Streamlining
Domain Squabbles
av Oscar S. Cisneros, Wired 001026
"A group of volunteers and educators is working on a publication on
domain name resolutions. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names
and Numbers (ICANN), the Internet´s managing authority, created
the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute Resolution Process (UDRP) as a quick
and inexpensive procedure to deal with domain name cybersquatting
cases. That's where Domain Name Law Reports and several nonprofit
groups come in. Thanks to volunteer efforts, sorely needed legal tools
are being developed to grapple with the mass of UDRP decisions. And
in contrast to traditional sources of legal information, the new tools
are free to use."

"Vissa domännamn är reserverade av NIC-SE och kan därmed
inte registreras. Till höger finns en lista över samtliga

Registries
prepare for domain crush
av Lisa M. Bowman, News.com 010507
"Companies in charge of the newest top-level domains gave a glimpse
of their plans for handling the online land grab that's sure to follow
the launch of new Internet addresses. Speaking before an audience
of attorneys at the International Trademark Association's annual meeting,
companies administering the .info, .pro, .name and .biz domains vowed
to protect the rights of intellectual property holders as they introduce
the new addresses."
How
to Manage "Country-Code" Domain Names in a ".com" World
av Mark Grossman & Andrew Chulock, GigaLaw 0008
"Not long ago, companies could register their domain name in the ".com"
hierarchy without concern for other "top-level domains." But now,
a number of nations are exploiting their "country-code" domain names
- such as Tuvalu's ".tv". This also creates a nightmare for companies
looking to preserve their domain identities. Now, it's not just the
basic suite of ".com," ".net," and ".org" that you need to register,
now you also have to consider country-code TLDs such as ".tv," ".cc"
".md," and ".ws. This article explains
the structure of these country codes and how businesses should react
to them."
ACLU
Fires Shot Across ICANN's Bow
av David McGuire, Newsbytes 010118
"The ACLU letter says that the creation of new domains is critical
to fostering and protecting free speech online, it contends that the
ICANN process for creating those domains was too slow and designed
to favor corporate interests over the rights ofindividual Web users."
How
Much for .brooklynbridge?
av Oscar S. Cisneros, Wired 000911
"Although new top-level domains (TLDs) on the order of
.com, .net, and .org won't be created until
sometime next year, cybersquatters, trademark owners and cyber-wildcatters
are hoping to beat the next Internet land rush using pre-registration
schemes. Experts warn, however,
that consumers should be aware of the risks involved with buying a
domain names under a TLD - such as .web - that has yet to be approved
by the Internet's managing authority."
WIPO
Pushes Intellectual Property Guidelines
av David McGuire, Newsbytes 010221
"The influential World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) thisweek
stepped up efforts to homogenize online dispute resolution
by urging the ccTLD operators to adhere to
UDRP."
A
Summary of the Final Report of the Second WIPO Internet Domain Name
Process
av Peter K. Yu, GigaLaw 0201
"The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO)'s final report
on the Second Internet Domain Name Process makes recommendations on
how to deal with problems arising from conflicts between domain names
and a range of naming systems, including standard nonproprietary names
for pharmaceutical substances, the names and acronyms of international
intergovernmental organizations, personal names, geographical indications
and terms and trade names. These conflicts, which address issues other
than typical domain name trademark disputes such as cybersquatting,
represent important issues businesses face online. This article summarized
these issues and the significance of the WIPO report."
Is
NSI hoarding domain names?
av Ben Charny, ZDNet 001019
"A Birmingham, Ala., businessman has filed a class action lawsuit
against domain name registrar Network Solutions Inc., claiming the
company has been hoarding a stockpile of as many as three million
domain names for a potentially lucrative auction. "They (NSI) are
attempting to benefit from a product that is not theirs," Powell said."
The
Impact of "Reverse Domain Name Hijacking"
av Jay Hollander, GigaLaw 0203
"Understanding the concept of reverse domain name hijacking
will be helpful if you see yourself as "David" against "Goliath" in
a domain name dispute. Don't bully or harass the respondent, because
that is a very quick way to be found a reverse hijacker. If the respondent
offers to sell you the disputed name for a reasonable sum, accept
it or refuse, as you wish, but don't thereafter bring a complaint
under the UDRP."
Foreign-Character
Domain Names and New Top-Level Domains Create More Trademark Issues
av David J. Stewart and Robert L. Lee, GigaLaw 0011
"Trademark owners are facing two important developments related to
domain name registration that could significantly impact online branding
and enforcement strategies: 1.
the ability to register domain names in non-English characters, and
2. the adoption
of new generic top-level domains. Both developments, as well as the
practical impact of the developments on your branding and enforcement
strategies, are addressed in this article."
Trademarks
and the New ".biz" and ".info" Domains
av Jay Hollander, GigaLaw 0107
"As two new top-level domains - ".biz" and ".info" - are introduced,
trademark owners have an unprecedented opportunity (and, some might
say, obligation) to protect their property in cyberspace. This article
explains the important procedures that trademark owners can use
to stake their claims in these new domains."
Patent
flap slows multilingual domain name plan
av Carolyn Duffy Marsan, Network World Fusion 010326
"Intellectual property claims have blindsided the Internet Engineering
Task Force and could derail the group's efforts to
develop a common scheme for supporting
foreign-language domain names across the Internet."
