Isn't it curious that in 5 years I never had a single client let a domain
expire for more than a few days before letting us know they did indeed want
it and now that we have this redemption period I have had 3 domains this has
happened with (sigh).
Anyhow, I do have a ticket into support, but this might be happening to
others also.
I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how many days after a domain expires it
should be released back into the namespace. I have a client with two .com's
which expired Dec 20/02. I am still not able to re-register these for him
even though by my calculation we are now on day 76. I had thought it was 40
days to deletion and then a further 30 day redemption period. Did I
understand that wrong? The status in the whois shows these domains are
PENDINGDELETE. I had hoped to be able to monitor the domains and register
them as soon as they came available. However, if I have to check daily with
no firm date on their release, this is going to become far too time
consuming.
