Having just noticed this thread in my mail archive, I'm reminded that I
ought to post an update for <[email protected]> readers.  The suit was
recently dismissed, voluntarily by the plaintiff, on the grounds that it
was completely unfounded.  Olson and Eggert have rejoined the database
maintenance mailing list, which is remaining at its new home supplied
by IANA.  Robert Elz is still releasing new versions of the database,
but the coordination job may well shift back to Olson imminently.
Essentially, the episode is over.
