i just read that article and am a little confused, aside from the fact 
that somehow verigsign OK'd this transfer.  This quote is quite 
interesting:

"The registrars were able to reverse the situation within 24 hours of 
notification. In the meantime, VeriSign worked as a conduit to assist 
the registrars. The name has been restored to the registrant of record 
and the name servers have been restored."

And I though this whole issue was made worse b/c it tool well over 24 
hours to get the gears moving at MIT (no weekend NOC support etc..).  
and finally isn't PANIX registered by Godaddy or something like that?  
The plot thickens :)
