Hmm. Does this mean immediate deletion? As in, no ON-HOLD period? Is this wise, considering the many bookkeeping foul-ups that have caused domains to go mistakenly ON-HOLD? I know of at least 2 or maybe 3 of our customers that have had this happen to them recently. If there is no on-hold timeperiod, then NSI must at least grant the domain "back" to the original holder, if someone were to have grabbed it during its incorrect deletion... Or am I misunderstanding the procedures? Those that think this is inappropriate material for this list (at least a clarification of NSI's actions, maybe a full-blown discussion is too much ;-) should reconsider. -Taner -- D.

I think that what David's saying is that the temporary halt of all deletions is over, and things are now back to normal. Whether that "normal" is good or bad is a flamewar for some other list. *grin* ********************************************************* J.D.
