.edu domains

[Mark Gooch]

In light of past discussion about assigning the .edu domains, I thought
folks might be interested in this section from today's BNA's Internet
Law News:

VERISIGN BECOMES UNEDUCATED
The Commerce Department has selected EDUCAUSE, a non-profit
consortium, to replace VeriSign as the assigner of the .edu
domain suffix.  Education groups praised the decision,
especially community colleges, which did not qualify for a
.edu under the VeriSign regime.
