[UPDATE: SIDN announced that the maintenance window is now completed at Jan-9, 2009 23:00]
FYI, SIDN (the .nl-registry) has scheduled a maintenance window, which has consequences for checking and registering domains during between the following times:
Start: 09-01-09 18:00 hrs (CET)
End: 09-01-09 24:00 hrs (CET)
* During the maintenance window, the following services will be
unavailable:
- E-mail (interface)
- (Registrar) Whois
- DRS4.3
- DNS-check
* Service implications:
During the maintenance window, it will not be possible to process
applications or requests. In contrast to the situation during other
maintenance windows, SIDN will not be able to take delivery of e-mail
during the specified period. Applications and requests submitted by
e-mail will NOT therefore be placed in a queue.
* Reason:
During this maintenance window, work will be carried out on the database
server hardware.
