Folks...About that Premium domain Sedo auction fiasco of Dec 5th 2008...
As one that has been very closely, and actively, involved since the beginning, I can verify that things have moved on behind the scenes quite a long way since the info (2 weeks ago) that accentnepal posted above.
Please note that the speculation on outcomes in some of the posts above may not necessarily be accurate....Neither mTLD - nor anyone else directly involved - has made any public statement on this matter since mTLD's proposal to bidders, and since the bidder's Roundtable proposal to mTLD.....For the simple reason that matters have yet to be finalised.
Having said that - You'll appreciate that the silence you hear is the sound of confidential discussion....I can verify to you that very significant progress is being made in resolving issues arising from that whole auction fiasco on Dec 5 2007.
Its a complex situation - and there is a way to go yet - but, I have very solid reasons to use the words 'very optimistic' to describe the current status, and the outlook, for this matter, for all concerned.
I suggest patience for a little longer....
