Hi all from AU, Just for those that havn't seen the article: Latest "net.au" mail out by Domain Names Australia Pty Ltd Melbourne, 17 July 2003 - auDA has become aware that Domain Names Australia Pty Ltd (DNA) is sending letters and/or faxes to some domain name registrants regarding the net.au version of their .au domain name being available or unregistered. The communication is headed "Domain Name Registration" and could, in auDA's opinion, be easily mistaken for an invoice. To this extent, auDA considers that the communication could be misleading or deceptive. DNA is a company controlled by Mr Chesley Rafferty, who is also a Director of Internet Registry Pty Ltd. auDA took legal action against Mr Rafferty and Internet Registry in 2002, as a result of which Mr Rafferty gave several undertakings in the Federal Court. auDA believes that this latest mail out by DNA is in breach of some of Mr Rafferty's undertakings, and we are pursuing the matter vigourously. If you have received a net.au letter from DNA and you wish to lodge a formal complaint, please send an email to info§auda.org.au.
