A lawsuit has been settled at the Court in Spanish regarding the lack of competence.

No agreement has been signed to the NAF, but for the Arbitration in Spain, that in anycase is illegal accordin the Spanis and the UE regulation (Regl. 44/2001) on Judicial Competence. And art 54.2 of the Spanish Procedure Law (LEC).

So Yahoo will have to wait a long period for that resolution to be effective

Defensive registrations seem to be the only part of new TLD business plans that are in anyway reliable. I would agree with George about defensive registrations being a racket. It can be hard to tell which new TLD will be successful and which will be a fizzle. The .tel TLD is a curious one in that it is still growing but growing slowly. In some respects it is a web directory on steroids. By comparison, .asia sTLD is finding the post landrush environment very difficult. Unless the new TLDs have a killer unique selling point they are going to find it very difficult to gain market share.

Let’s face it. Yahoo doesn’t want yahoo.tel. They just don’t want anyone else using it.

you would think that Yahoo would buy this in sunrise, Whats a couple of hundred dollars to a company this big?

instead they waste a couple thousand to get it a few month later.

Really the question is, Why do the registrars let people register this name in the first place?
