The notice which netsol sent out: Notice: .ORG Registry Transition Scheduled for January 25 - 26 On January 1, 2003, the Public Interest Registry (PIR) became the new registry for the .org domain name extension. PIR will now maintain the authoritative directory of all .org domain names. Beginning January 25, 2003 at 9:00 a.m. EST, VGRS Registry will disable its connection to all registrars for .org to begin the transition process. On January 26, 2003 at 6:00 p.m. EST, PIR will re-establish its connection with all registrars. However, to ensure all functionality is appropriately in place, account modifications to current .org domain names cannot be made for approximately 48 hours following the transition. During the initial transition period, January 25, 2003 from 9:00 a.m. EST until January 26, 2003 6:00 p.m. EST, you will not be able to purchase new .org domain name registrations, transfer .org domain names or make DNS changes. Be assured that this maintenance period will not affect the ability for customers to view your Web site, and it will not impact the delivery of any of your e-mail. Please note that Network Solutions(R), Inc. has no control over this registry transition and all registrars will be affected. We appreciate your patience as this transition occurs. -- Richard A Steenbergen <[email protected]> http://www.e-gerbil.net/ras GPG Key ID: 0xF8B12CBC (7535 7F59 8204 ED1F CC1C 53AF 4C41 5ECA F8B1 2CBC)
