Finally some common sense in the world!!

It appears that ICM pressed the issue to get a final vote at this meeting. I wonder if they have a plan to bring this back up again later?

Ya beat me to it Linkster...some very good news indeed |thumb

Holy fuck, someone actually might have heard us!

I am so glad to see this potential waste of money gone.

Party on :)

Good thing i wrote the email :) surprised they made a decision so quick, it's good news :D

Wow good news :) That just made my day. It's nice to think that all those emails might have made a difference.

That is some great news!

This is good news indeed. Now let's hope they don't pick it up later on.

Thanks to everyone that sent in an email, even if it was (like mine) just a very short one. Good work people!

The bitches got scared
And that's damn nice !

Good news indeed. Must have been my email that did it!!:D

Thanks to everyone that posted comments and I hope this issue is closed for at least some time.

No, you´re obviously wrong. I´m sure it was mine which convinced them.

Please let me believe in this, it´s the only thing which keeps me up because my conversions suck at the moment...:D

Wonderful News! they found their Inboxs flooded

I just think they finally realized that nobody was happy: There would be no way to force people off of the .coms, the XXX making a "donation" to an antiporn for kids thing was a crock, and the most conservative types felt that it would legitimize porn.

I just wonder what the five who voted for it were smoking.

Best indication: Vint Cerf voted against. That is a real sign that it wasn't going to be.

Guess the EU is trying to make some brownie points to push for an independent ICANN .
