I would definitely like to hear the outcome of this - I haven't had any
phonecalls from angry customers, so I don't know if any of our domains have
been effected... but I'm sure plenty of other peopel would like to know more
about this

Subject: Verisign woes....
Here is what happened:
The VeriSign Global Registry (formarly NSI) was having a problem with
getting the "leap year" calendar worked out. Yesterday they thought they
had fixed the issue, with the leap year problem last light (they were
inadvertendly dropping a day on expiration). However, their "fix" changed
many thousands of domains to expiration dates of 1900, which then meant
some registrars deleted them because they were showing as expired.
I had two domains affected (not registered through OpenSRS though) that I
know of.
Chuck, do you know if OpenSRS domains were affected as well ?
Thanks,
Taco Scargo
