[Ec-ncuc] URGENT! Comments on defensive registrations of domain names- DEADLINE TODAY

[Alex Gakuru]

KK,

I fully agree and support. Some of us consider overbearing IP
interests so-called "defensive"  registrations actually as offensive
seize of the domain name space guaranteeing the permanent exclusion of
developing countries chances from their natural and fair share of the
domain name space.

Thanks again.

Alex
