Subversion domain names

I was planning to announce here that I'm donating the subversion.eu
domain name to the new org. Well, it turns out that the .eu domain
launch left something to be desired -- despite all assurances to the
contrary, most interesting domain names were grabbed by hosting
providers instead of interested parties.

The interesting thing here is that one provider has managed to register
any number of Subversion domain names, and they're advertising the
following as "reserved for one of our customers":

    subversion.nl
    subversion.eu
    subversion.be
    subversion.com
    subversion.net
    subversion.org
    subversion.biz
    subversion.info
    subversion.nu

Now, I'm fairly sure that Karl owns subversion.org, and someone else
owns subversion.com. I'm sort of on the verge of finding our friendly
neighbourhood script kiddie and pointing it at www.vip.nl ...
