Oh and who says that a "Scam" has occurred? Joe?
So far, thats all I see here.

Show me a court case/docket number where someone
was sued for this issue and then maybe we can find
some time to deal with it in between re-organizing the
TLDA.

My point is that we have nothing but an official looking
opinion-piece from Joe.

I suggest that if we in the TLDA really have that much
time on our hands, to investigate and do proper due
dilligence on this matter (so we dont get sued ourselves
for going off half-cocked), that we spend that effort
on the reorganization effort.

Note that I carefully did not mention Joe, at all. While Joe may
have instituted this investigation, he is doing so as
representitive of the publicroot, clearly not as a TLDA
representitive. Yes, it is on fine points like these that we have
to be very careful. For the moment, he is trying to encourage us
to get involved. Whatever the reason, I don't care.

However, Xent carries the TLDA name on his website and no one
involved with the TLDA has ever signed any contract authorising
him to do so. We do have grounds for a cease-and-desist order but
we are no way ready for that. For the moment, I suggest that the
wise course is to do nothing and stick to our knitting. That is,
continue knitting this organization into something of more
substance than it has now.

Joe is only trying to distract us. Intentional or not, it doesn't
matter. We need to stick to our core processes right now and while
a potential future core endeavor, it is not a current one. More to
the point, we can't afford to get involved right now and the
timing is most inconvenient.

I recently received this email that originated from Roeland Meyer and
want to take the time to respond. The claims made are misleading and
confused. I reject the claim made that all I am doing is distracting
the TLDA. Incorrect - I am asking that you do your jobs. And I
disagree with the statement that I am encouraging the TLDA to get
involved. It is more correct to say that I expect the TLDA to get
involved. I base this on my reading of the bylaws of the TLDA - being
ARTICLE I section 5 and all of ARTICLE II.

To date I have communicated three complaints to the TLDA. Two collissions.

http://www.publicroot.org/correspondence/2006-12-30-TLD-Collission-EVENTS.html
http://www.publicroot.org/correspondence/2007-09-17-TLD-Collission-IRL.html

and now a complaint of fraud

http://www.publicroot.org/correspondence/PR-NOTICE-Sept-21-2007.pdf

Nothing has been done by the TLDA on the collissions. Although it is
clearly the TLDA mandate to deal with collissions. And I expect based
on what I have seen so far that the Fraud will also be ignored. Non of
this however concerns me.

What concerns me is that I have acted appropriately in providing the
TLDA notice on all three counts. I recognize the TLDA as the official
authority for Inclusive Name Space therefore the notice given is
properly delivered. I can now prove in any court of law, or to any
person, that I have taken the appropriate steps in notifying those
responsible. To me this is all about honesty and the integrety of the
Inclusive Name Space. If the TLDA fails to act on the complaints then
it's not my business, its the TLDAs business.
