I've recently raised the following issues on this list:
1. I am seeking to donate the
wikipaedia.net domain name (which I have
registered) to the Wikipedia Foundation. (I also expressly emailed
Jimmy on this... no reply yet...)
2. A particularly bad serial cybersquatter is controlling
wikipaedia.org,
wikipaedia.com and wikipaedia.de. We really should get
these domains off him (and would be able to do so).
3. That same cybersquatter is infringing our copyrights, large scale.
4. That same cybersquatter is imposturing as us.
I didn't get much of a response when I first wrote about these things
(not even after a 3 day wait). This despite their (perceived, by
myself) severity.
I did however send most of what I wrote _as an attached HTML file_.
So maybe most people didn't get the HTML attachment?
I have thus now posted my "little paper" on my website, at:

_Please, PLEASE DO have a look at it and read it!_
Please, let's start tackling these issues! If there is a better place
to take this, please tell me so! -- I am still fairly new and chances
are I'm just not aware of it.
I really do want these issues addressed!
Thanks and regards,
