It may not be a hearing but they can still appeal. If, during this period, further technical and operational evaluations of the changes made by VeriSign on 15 September indicate that those measures can be reinstated, or reinstated with modifications, without adverse effects, I will initiate the process to modify the .com and .net agreements to allow those changes to take place. We will use best efforts to complete these evaluations in a timely manner. If, on the other hand, these ongoing evaluations confirm the claimed adverse effects on the Internet, the DNS or the .com and .net domains that have been publicized to date, or raise new concerns of that type, those concerns will have to be resolved prior to any reintroduction of these changes. If any such concerns cannot be resolved, and VeriSign continues to seek to implement the service, it will be necessary to make recourse to the dispute resolution provisions of the two agreements. This doesn't say it WILL reappear, only that it MAY. Then again, there aren't a whole lot of modifications that can be made to "* IN A 64.94.110.11" so we'll see..

Why should they need a hearing ? IMHO the ICANN demand is only to remove the wildcard DNS pointers to the "Site Finder" service and they're completely free to point say "*.verisign.com" to their "Site Finder" (Which they're free to leave running as long as they want ;-) -- Regards, Rafi
