Jeroen:

Was able to confirm first patent was rejected - i.e.

http://nl.ecodoc.mineco.fgov.be/BASIS/BREV/web/brevwebdut11/DDW?W%3DTI+PH+IS+%27TECHNOLOGIE+EN+BUSINESSMODEL+INZAKE%27%26M%3D2%26K%3D004/0623%26R%3DY%26U%3D1

but what about the second one?

http://nl.ecodoc.mineco.fgov.be/BASIS/BREV/web/brevwebdut11/DDW?W%3DTI+PH+IS+%27TECHNOLOGIE+EN+BUSINESSMODEL+INZAKE%27%26M%3D1%26K%3D005/0340%26R%3DY%26U%3D1

does not look like that one was rejected.  any advise Jeroen?

thanks

Not mispropaganda sureley.  Its more to the point to say we dont speaken
the dutch.

Your report that both applications were rejected pleases me.  I myself
considered the attempt ridiculous. I'm not sure the process of adding a
label to a database can be patented.  If it can alot of people are in
trouble.

TLDs do have intellectual property value - but that is in the database
copyright, not in the technical administrative proceedure.

Yes - both patents attempt to take control of the adding of tlds to a root
zone file.  The second patent recorded on 6 July 2005 is an attempt to
further recognize the proceedure as being commercial.  Will need some
native speakers to make out the exact wording on the original patents.

For Non Dutch Speaking people, these two URL's both contain a very
important part:

8<----------------
Beperkingen:  4. GEWEIGERD / AFGEWEZEN 20050404
---------------->8

Which translates to:

8<----------------
Limitations:  4. REJECTED 20050404
---------------->8

In other words, nobody is getting any patent.
There would be a lot of prior art anyway ;)

Now back to your normal IETF schedule....

Greets,
 Jeroen
