It also has an article about the .eu Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) procedure that is used for challenging .eu registrations. It seems that for six months, from 1 July 2012, basic proceedings are half price at 600 euros. EURid is sponsoring the .eu ADR procedure at the Czech Arbitration Court by providing a financial contribution for this time period. This is truly a first.
