Bruce,

Thanks for listening to the recommendation/feedback.
Since you didn't state what exactly are the changes you will be making,
I assume you will be changing the registry back-end so that the registry
will
credit registrars accounts when registrars delete names instead of
holding our money until the end of RGP.
Can you verify my assumption?
If that is your intent, I congratulate you and PIR in this 
and I look forward to your posting of the release date.
I am hopeful that Afilias will follow your lead with .info as then
they would be the only major registry to not credit on deletion.

Thanks and regards,
Paul

	Elana,

	 

	Would you please post the following to the Registrar Constituency
mailing list?

	 

	Though I would not normally request that you consider posting
regular communication from PIR to registrars, in this case, this delay in
our software implementation is based on the valued feedback we received from
members of the Registrar Constituency who posted on the RC mailing list.

	 

	Thanks in advance.

	 

	Regards,

	
	Bruce

	Dear Registrars,

	Please be advised that PIR is delaying the release of the Redemption
Grace Period (RGP) Phase II automation process for the .ORG TLD, originally
scheduled for on 25 October 2003.

	We have received feedback from our registrar customers in regard to
RGP Phase II.  You have suggested a more efficient method to implement the
automation of RGP Phase II, one which will better serve you, our registrars
and your customers.  PIR has reviewed and incorporated your recommendations.
Based on your valuable feedback, PIR will enhance our software to more
effectively meet our customers' needs.  We will inform you shortly of the
new RGP Phase II release date.

	As part of the originally scheduled outage, PIR was planning on
conducting some database maintenance activities.  Those activities will
still occur; therefore there will be a system outage between 15:00 and 19:00
UTC on 25 October 2003.  During this period, the shared registration system
and contact preload system will be unavailable. Registering and manipulating
domain names and other registry objects will not be possible but domains
will continue to resolve normally.

	Also during this maintenance period, the WHOIS service will be
interrupted between 15:00 and 17:00 UTC. 

	Please note that both .ORG OT&E Systems for EPP and RRP will remain
functional during the maintenance and there will be no interruption to
registrars performing the OT&E Tests.

	PIR appreciates the feedback and continued support from you, our
valued registrar customers. 

	Regards, 

	Bruce Beckwith

	Public Interest Registry
