[ga] Re: .pro not resolving

[Marcus Gilmore <marcusgilmore@xxxxxxxxx>]

We had a serious technical issue yesterday with AV data which deactivated 
all .pro domains. No domains were deleted. We've repaired the problem and 
implemented mechanisms to prevent it in the future. We are very sorry for 
the problem.


Sincerely,

 I find it really disturbing that a TLD can offline for several hours and 
that they cannot be reached by phone or email.
