FYI: A speaker from the competition directorate of the EU commission 
(http://europa.eu.int/comm/competition) has confirmed that they are 
examining the ICANN verisign .com contract, apparently stimulated by 
CFIT. I don't think it has been widely noticed yet, as this interesting 
bit of info was researched by Monika Ermert from heise and the article is 
published in German. (http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/70352). I 
did not find any comment at the eu site. Investigation does not mean that 
they will take any steps, of course, but still interesting.
