.travel is not yet that popular. To be honest about it, I haven't opened a site ever with .travel domain name.

Now I am convinced, this is inside trading. None controls this ?
It shows the status as being "pendingDelete (restorable)"

But it says the domain was registered Thu Dec 20 19:13:31 GMT 2007.

Nice!
Experience has shown so many times (and .travel may or may not be another example) that the only practical way to minimize the potential for insider dealing (or for the greatest landrush profits going to the most aggressive benders of the rules) is to actually do exactly what dotMobi did: hold many of the premium domains back and auction them later (with mandatory development requirements) in order to finance the creation of development tools and otherwise promote the use of the extension.

Pathetic tralliance


It is a very pathetic situation of the tralliance corporation.I know people waiting for dec21 to grab the .travel domain they waited for years.They were denied it earlier as it is a place name or reserved name and were advised to wait till dec 21st.
But it was shocking to see that a group called labitrav has registered all the important place names and reserved names without any authentication or criteria which tralliance were boasting before.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=411587
Leave the names registered after 21st dec,what about those names egistered on 19th and 20th of december.What explanation they have to the poor people around the globe waiting for their domains.A big shame on tralliance.
The action will be taken to the notice of ICCANN and if no action is taken it will be taken to court as cheating is a criminal offence.
