All postings here are my own opinion. YMMV. May shrink in hot water. Do not expose to UV. May contain traces of nuts. With added riboflavin!


 

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 Please be advised that the list is out of date but it will be updated in future.

Good Friday: Mormons love thy fellow domain registrants
Good Friday seems a good time to update people on familysearch.co.nz versus the Church Of Latter-Day Saints. For those that are new or have forgotten the Herald did a story about a year ago on the familysearch.co.nz dispute and also this Google search brings up other material.

After talking to the familysearch.co.nz registrant it seems neither side is backing down and it could soon be heading to the High Court. At the moment the content at familysearch.co.nz is located at familytracing.co.nz, I assume while the issue is unresolved?

I wonder what legal team is representing the Mormons in this dispute?

CNO vs .au vs .nz for registrars
I am just finishing a comparison of ICANN TLD's, .au and .nz with regard to the number of registrars and total names in the TLD. The results are amazing. I am trying to write my conclusions on my findings now...

Wholesale .nz fee stays same
InternetNZ has decided to keep the wholesale domain fee the same at $1.75 per month. I was a proponent of the fee being this level at the SRS launch (it was $2). I think at this stage $1.75 but when NZRS is expected to provide 7 figure dividends to InternetNZ I think the 'cost plus' thinking needs to be formalised.

Bloody sub-editors!
Is it just me or does part of the story on the ComCom determination of Telco Tax have an interesting place holder of someones title?

Then again maybe Telecom NZ does give titles like "Telecom general manager hrrm hrrm something Bruce Parkes."

Update: This was corrected some time in the afternoon on Good Friday. The major downside to IDG (and other news sites) is they do no list corrections made to stories. Thats why I always make a copy of the HTML :-)
