ICANN suspends gTLD "digital archery lottery" due to ... you guessed
it ... more technical problems

http://j.mp/MLwWSp  (ICANN)

  "Operation of the digital archery portion of the New Generic Top-level
   Domain Program has been suspended.  The primary reason is that
   applicants have reported that the timestamp system returns unexpected
   results depending on circumstances. Independent analysis also
   confirmed the variances, some as a result of network latency, others
   as a result of how the timestamp system responds under differing
   circumstances."

I have no official comment, since I've run out of suitable synonyms
for "embarrassing."
