it looks like dotster's .org whois is broke :

Example D-G.org :

on my site and every other whois site it shows as available :

http://www.whois-search.com/results/?query=d-g.org

But from http://www.pir.org/cgi-bin/whois.cgi you get some whois :

Whois,

D-G.org is mine. I paid $ 26. for it on 8-1-03

I have a number of domains with NW that have not been updated with ownership name. But, I keep a running spreadsheet so they don't fall between the cracks.

On that same morning I picked up

22CN.org..................... ownership listed.
TimeShareSales.org ... ownership listed.
1-9.org.........................ownership not listed.

And, I was billed for them.

Andrew, thank you for the reminder. I guess I better contact them again.

Hello Andrew,

The domain Who-is is very good at retreiving most Domains and the information held for them. The exception to this is the .ORG extension. We do recommend that if you have a .ORG domain that you check it at pir.org as they are the originating source for this and will have the latest update.


Thank you,

Kit
