I take it from the monotonous regularity that Verisign takes the registry system down, that there isn't any uptime guarantees in their agreement with ICANN? It seems like they take it down whenever they're working on changes to their REGISTRAR system, to prevent their competitors from offering registration services when Verisign Registrar is off the air. That's just an opinion, of course. -- Paul Gordon, IQ Management Corporation http://iqmc.com
