Horse Race Stops Expired Domains In Australia
November 3, 1 Comment
It appears that AusRegistry didn’t release .au expired domains today. This would normally happen on National Public Holidays, but its not a National Public holiday….
It just so happens that in Melbourne, Victoria (where AusRegistry is based) its the running of the Melbourne Cup.
In February, 2009 auDA announced that it had extended its .au Registry Licence Agreement with AusRegistry until 2014. They have a few more Melbourne Cups to get it right.


this is probably why it’s called the race that stops the nation.
