[ga] FYI: .org Agreement Signed; Transition Plans Announced



 http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-03dec02.htm

 The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) 
 President and CEO, Stuart Lynn has signed the finalized agreement 
 for the Public Interest Registry (PIR) to operate the .org 
 top-level domain. PIR takes over from VeriSign, the current .org 
 registry operator, as of 1 January 2003.

 To ensure a smooth handoff, PIR – a subsidiary of the Internet 
 Society (ISOC) – and VeriSign have planned a 25-day transition 
 period until 25 January 2003, to give ICANN-accredited registrars 
 time to adapt to the new system.
 [...]

By the way: The PIR site [1] and the Org Transition site for 
registrars [2] now both seem to be live, and PIR is searching 
for a CEO. [3]
