CodeZoo – Java 的 CPAN

公告他們決定要成立 CodeZoo – 的 ：CodeZoo, a new O’Reilly site, launches，不過與 不太一樣：

We’re not focused on hosting developer projects, like SourceForge, nor on comprehensively listing all open source Java code. Instead, we’ve hand-selected a list of the components we think will be the easiest and best to use in your development projects — whether you are an open source or commercial developer.

用人工選？這樣跟 差太多了。

在 上也有許多不同的聲音：Developer Site CodeZoo Launches

sex.com 的判決

在 看到這個「非常有名」的 Domain Name 判決：Sex.com ruling upheld by Court of Appeals。

原因起於 1994 年 Gary Kremen 註冊了 sex.com，而 Stephen Cohen 故意假造信件要求 要求 Transfer：

Kremen, of San Francisco, originally registered the name in 1994. But Cohen, an ex-convict, took the name from Kremen the following year by sending a forged letter of transfer to Network Solutions (which subsequently became part of VeriSign).

然後 Stephen Cohen 到 2000 年十一月前利用這個騙來的 domain 架設色情網站獲取暴利：

Cohen then ran a highly profitable porn portal until November 2000 when a court awarded Kremen the return of the domain name.

然後跑到歐洲去爽：

Cohen has paid nothing to Kremen, and Kremen says that a warrant is out for his arrest. But according to the fascinating article by USA Today, Cohen is now in Europe, making what he describes as a “very comfortable living” in the European casino and construction industries.

另外 也因此被告：

Kremen also sued VeriSign for the initial blunder, a case that settled last year with the company paying Kremen an undisclosed sum.
