Hello all. Expect some calls from people who can't reach *.att.net. The att.net domain has expired and is in Verisign's new "not working and not for sale" hold queue.

Ok, I'll bite.... It's not Dec 2003 yet, so how is it expired?

You'd think the good people at AT&T could afford to register their domain
for longer than 1 year at a time. I mean, that's the kind of thing you're
expect from AboveNet (hi Majdi), but not AT&T. :slight_smile:

Uh, I had trouble reaching www.worldnet.att.net's website last night (i.e.
machine was up and pingable, but no response on port 80), but I don't
think it has anything to do with att.net domain registrations.

Since its only March 13, 2003, I think a domain expiring in 14-Dec-2003
should still be working (Unless Verisign screwed up again).
