Dear Mr. Nelson,
We confirm receipt of your written notice of termination of your
registrar's RAA. We have completed our internal review and in
accordance with ICANN's Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy, we approve your
request to designate Fabulous.com Pty Ltd. as the gaining registrar to
receive the bulk transfer of all names currently under management of
your registrar. We will contact the relevant registries shortly and you
can coordinate the timing of the bulk transfers with the registries
directly after they contact you.
The termination will be effective on 30 November 2010. As requested,
ICANN waives the remainder of the 30-day notice period set forth in the
RAA.
Please note that your registrar remains responsible for all outstanding
fees due to ICANN which are incurred up until the effective date of
termination, which is 30 November, 2010. Please let us know if you have
any questions.
Sincerely,

Mike
As I previously noted, I remain Baron's counsel in the bankruptcy (the Judge
confirmed that yesterday after you left) but it still seems to be the common wisdom
that neither I nor Jeff have authority to object or consent to action in the bankruptcy.
And, I am not of record in the Dist. Ct matter. The DIst Ct. case is in the purvue of
Mr. Schepps. Therefore, I make no comment on the proposed order and my silence
on the issue should not be taken as anything but silence.
It was good to see you yesterday.
