just got a mail from Davidlace.com

"LATEST ACACIA NEWS! They Hi-Jacked Our Domain Name! For those of you familiar with Acacia Research you will fully understand our new "Hating Acacia Sale" (LOL). And if you are not familiar with Acacia then be very thankful and enjoy the sale.

We at Lace Studios just learned yesterday that the Acacia guys were actually able to place a hold on our domain name laceproductions.com virtually shutting down our content site for a few hours. They did this by serving papers to the registrar of this domain GODADDY.COM. According to GODADDY.COM's legal department they chose to "take down the site" and said "we have to wait until we hear from the courts regarding this domain." And we received no advance notice whatsoever from GODADDY regarding their decision. Of course this was really no big deal as we ha! ve multiple mirror sites. But it shows the lengths that these guys will go to try to enforce this "patent" they claim to have."

Yeah well the good news is that they have a "HATING ACACIA SALE" 4 DAYS ONLY. 30% OFF ALL LACE TITLES!. LOL
