It does then raise the question: How could another registrar process a
registration for this domain??
If the details quoted are correct, then "> > > Record expires on
07-Apr-2001." plus 40 days, would mean that OSRS requests the registry to
delete the name on 17th May 2001... My calander shows that as being nearly
2 weeks into the future..
