Home :: ICANN 17 Aug 2006 Cameroon *.CM wildcard--it's baaack ICANN Today the wildcard is back in all but one of the CM name servers, again pointing at the same server in Canada that doesn't identify itself but has a big link farm of Overture pay-per-click links. Also, Appolinaire Noumbi, who identifies himself as the Chairman, Federation of Cameroonian Engineers, has posted a most peculiar personal page at Circle ID. I still think that it is not a fundamentally bad idea for Cameroon to take advantage of its typographic proximity to .COM, but an anonymous junk parking page is not the way to do it. posted at: 23:23 :: permanent link to this entry :: 0 comments Trackback link is http://weblog.johnlevine.com/ICANN/cameroon4.trackback
