From now on, .mk registrations (Macedonia) are temporarily impossible due to the fact that the organisation which was responsible for .mk registrations (.mk registry) no longer has the permission of the Macedonian government to register .mk domain names. Why they don’t have this permission any more isn’t clear.

Today the landrush for .so names has finally started. This landrush has been postponed several times, once due to the success of the sunrise and once due to precaution measures. However, the landrush started today and will end on February 28th 2011.

We just received a message of the Somalian registry (.so) to inform us that the landrush for the .so extension will be postponed by 1 week. The landrush, which would originally have started on December 16th, has already been postponed once. The reason for this postponement was the hugh success of the sunrise period for this extension which made the registry decide to extend this sunrise period by 1 month. Because of this extension the sunrise ended on December 31st instead of on November 30th. At that time the registry decided to postpone the start of the landrush from December 16th until January 10th.
