We requested an extension from ICANN ML> to give more notice to the community but were denied. We will be s,notice to the community,time to whine to the press, ML> removing the wildcard A records from the .com and .net zones beginning ML> at 2300 UTC on Saturday, October 4. The former behavior for these ML> zones (returning Name Error/RCODE=3 in response to queries for ML> nonexistent domain names) will be in place by 0100 UTC on Sunday, ML> October. Looks like Sitefinder is still running. Messy source code? Hairy domain database? Why the delay? Trying to squeeze out a few more bucks before the deadline, perhaps? Nahhh... of course not!
