Thanks a lot, Jimbo, for your kind words :-)

Maybe I should make something more clear: I did not register it, I just 
saw, that someone has taken it, and I am working on finding a way to 
give the domains to Wikimedia fondation. I hope, this italian who took 
it, will give it to us without problems. If not, we will have to look 
for other ways to get it...

btw, Jimbo, are there any plans/news on getting the name Wikipedia 
registered worldwide? Any legal people working on that? That would help 
a lot when talking to this "domain-grabbers"...

Thanks again,
Fantasy :-)
