Anyone know why?
I've just had a domain cancel notification for an old unwanted name, so some are being deleted.
The usual PGP notification email when a domain is deleted, the whois now shows the domain as not registered - normal domain deletion on expected deletion day.
I don't understand the back-end systems, so don't know how this works, but surely a deleted domain would be caught immediately by someone, or are these domains that are being deleted out of sequence? Sorry for not having a clue!
A deleted name will only be caught by someone if it has some value This was just a normal unwanted domain being deleted on the last day of the suspend period, nothing abnormal.
