Roelof,

Is it not perhaps a little early to say this, in particular since
there is no "outcome" yet?

As anyone, including that Knowitall from that third rate University
is well aware of, I have repeatedly stated that Sockpuppy's case has
no merits whatsoever.

She must however be allowed to try and make her case, and in
particular must she be allowed to apply for protection against
irreversible actions to be taken (against her).

Which she has done by way of an Ex-Parte Temporary Restraining Order
and schh TROs have a vastly reduced requirement with regards to
merit.

The merits have not been assessed yet in the case of DCA vs ICANN,
though the (same) (alleged) merits have been resoundingly rejected
in the DCA vs ZACR case.


So, I think one should let the matter run its course.  One might
just be surprised about the wisdom of the Court.

And an even more resounding rejection of Sockpuppy's case will surely
afford opportunity for profound articles in reputed magazine.

greetings, el
