There is a lag time between when NSI removes the domain from their whois
server, and when it is actually deleted from the root registry. I suggest
putting the domain into pending mode, and periodically attempting to
register it over the next couple of days.
This isn't related in any way to the outage situation of last night
however.
The time you're listing is NSI's last whois update. Unlike NSI, OpenSRS's
whois is real-time for domains we are the registrar for.
