List of all DNC authorised registrars is available with .nz domain name pricing and other details. Please be advised that the list is out of date but it will be updated in future.   Wednesday, 7 August 2002 Domainz pays $1 million dividend Domainz ponies up a million. It would seem that once Domainz signed the Stabilising Registrar agreement it was the last part of them agreeing to pay InternetNZ the reminder of the $1.5 million dividend request. Domainz had already paid a dividend at their AGM of $500,000 and it seems the rest changed hands in the last few days. In turn it seems that most of this money then went to the NZRS to fund the SRS dev costs plus other startup costs. 11:41:34 PM      Like to comment? [] July growth slows Monthly growth. I noted the total names that Domainz thought existed in .nz at 9:15am on August 1st. I compared it to figures that were based on the zone file on July 1st (thanks Mark!). Now, comparing these numbers (which is not apples to apples but no matter) shows an increase of 481 names for the month to a total of 112,137. Now, this increase is down from the 1% monthy growth we have been seeing but just under .5% growth is still nothing to laugh at. When the independant figures get updated I will let you all know as I would rather use these numbers and not ones based on the DRS 11:13:21 PM      Like to comment? [] News Flash: Legal advice on domain name allcoation for the SRS due out tomorrow News Flash. Thanks to a little bit of digging I found out that DNC/InternetNZ will be making public legal advice they have received over how domain name allocation under the SRS. This advice is from Andrew Brown dated June 18th, 2002. 3:56:22 PM      Like to comment? [] Stabilising Registrar agreement signed. This tripartite agreement was signed by InternetNZ, Domainz, and NZRS over the last few days. It is a key document as this is what allows NZRS to take over the registry from Domainz and continue Domainz as the transitional registrar under the SRS. 3:29:36 PM      Like to comment? [] .bank.nz II. Back in May InternetNZ received a second 2LD application from the NZ Bankers' Association. It seems this application has finally been acted on by InternetNZ (via the NZOC) and will enter RFD status 'real soon now'. As the approval process takes time we could have another 2LD be approved early in 2003. 11:58:34 AM      Like to comment? [] © Copyright 2007 Foxbane Ltd and Steven Heath.
