Nominet Consultation opens on significant changes to .UK registry systems
There are no such thing as dumb questions, only dumb answers ;) They are not proposing these changes because the existing system is wrong or broken, but in order to standardise and have consistency across different platforms they operate. In my view, the "pull" system is more familiar and makes...- webber

Nominet Consultation opens on significant changes to .UK registry systems
These are significant changes to the .uk registry and I would urge anyone who is a Nominet registrar to have a close read and respond to the consultation. Even if you are non-technical and think you don't know or care what EPP is and does, you will still be impacted by this one way or another...- webber

Nominet Nominet named .gov.uk registry operator

Build own dropcatching software
You need to double check that code, I remember it had a non-standard epp implementation which Nominet's servers tolerate but is not ideal.

Wanted: Domain Discreet.co.uk and uk
That is the tag that first registered the domain: "events": [ { "eventAction": "registration", "eventActor": "TAGNAME", "eventDate": "2006-06-01T17:34:21Z" } ...it is not the current owner or registrar. See rdap.uk/?type=domain&object=Discreet.co.uk for a clearer display...- webber

Build own dropcatching software
It's worth clarifying that multiple tags mean multiple registrar tags under the same account/membership and not multiple accounts/memberships. See the AUP policy about linking multiple accounts. Tag and membership are often used interchangeably, sometimes even by Nominet staff.- webber

Registrar put domains in "Registrar Investigation Lock"
Check the domains in rdap.uk If they don't have server transfer prohibited or client transfer prohibited status codes then you can use Nominet's transfer service and transfer them to a different registrar. It costs £10+vat for the entire batch of domains. If the domains have server transfer...- webber

bdi.co.uk (1,378 GBP)
I don't really get the point of these automated posts... They add no value and just clutter the space, detracting from the important stuff. In a busy DL day, the New Threads section can be full of with these. Surely all users here know about DomainSalesHistory.uk- webber

Not too shabby – £1,334 Are you no longer reporting sales to @seemly at all? I remember at one point you were saying only sales over a certain value are included in your feed to DomainSalesHistory.uk- webber
