On October 16th, 2017, we received an application from Runbang Holdings Ltd requested ??freebsd?? as their internet keyword and China (CN) domain names( freebsd.cn/ freebsd.com.cn/ freebsd.net.cn/ freebsd.org.cn).  But after checking it, we find this name conflict with your company name or trademark. In order to deal with this matter better, it??s necessary to send email to you and confirm whether this company is your distributor or business partner in China?
