I can't agree with this, neither with the "first come, first serve"
argument. The present conflict resolution document very specifically refers
to the right of trademark owners to _their_ domain name and has a whole lot
of other great rules and regulations. The problem is that they are only
words and are not enforceable, other than for the two parties to go to
court (in America) to slug it out.
