[registrars] VeriSign's SiteFinder (antitrust) suit against ICANN dismissed

[Eric Brunner-Williams]

Oki all,

Moderately good news, which I hope will be followed by some staff comment
on the size of the ICANN budget earmarked for VGRS's litigation, which is
necessary for this to become Really good news.

Here's the URL for the story written up by Declan McCullagh and massaged
by Robert Lemos over at CNET.

I suppose this will mean that VGRS will no longer be threatening Paul Vixie
and other "John Does" who fielded fixes for BIND and other implementations
of DNS that provided work-arounds for VGRS's unannounced, and technically
daft registry-level hack.
