Hmm, even though January 12 is a good date (it's my son's birthday),
OpenSRS was officially live with it's first registration on January 6,
2000.  Here is an excerpt of the announcement:

After a few glitches, our first reseller went live today. im1.net

Our history with OpenSRS dates back to the fall of 1999; we became live
resellers on January 6, 2000 but we waited until after January 15, 2000
(when VRSN rolled out the new code to allow one year registrations among
other things) doing our first official third party registration on January
16, 2000. I can't believe it's been three years already.
