The re-auction of the 100 premium .mobi names that was scheduled for later this month has been postponed by mTLD, the registry.
These are the names that were auctioned on Sedo last December when the server crashed. The auction was re-started again later that day, after the first winners were invoiced. There has since been a lot of dispute over who should get these names which include Music.mobi which was bid in the second portion for $611,000.

There has been an effort to reach agreement among the auction winners. It now appears that the registry is also willing to work toward a resolution of this issue.
Very good news.
