Are you a lawyer? If so, please enlighten me on the grounds for such a lawsuit. The lawsuits IOD has already filed involving intellectual property rights have been rejected by the courts. Based on this, I think it's highly unlikely that a court would find in IOD's favor, especially considering the view the government (and not just the US government) seems to have regarding TLDs - that they are not property and cannot be owned or claimed.

Good luck to you, sir. You'll need it.
