auDA goes live with .au, Whois.au and Registry.au

[snoopy]

Apparently Cameron Boardman has "given" these names to Affilias. Not even sure how that is possible but they resolve.

This seem inappropriate to me given .au is supposedly on hold and no allocation policy has been developed. In my view this is just another example of Mr Boardman & Mr Leptos attempting to push the proposal through without due process. The "top down" management style with no community or member input continues.

What is next, auda.au? melbourneit.au?

I can see whois and it looks like registry has been taken down.

Somebody should make a complaint about their eligibilty ;-)

At what point do they actually focus on the problem at hand - the Government Review.

with registry.au it seems to only resolve at the http://whois.registry.au

Looks like auDA/Affilias (hard to know which entity actually claims ownership right now) are not providing whois output on either registration either. Surely blank whois is another breach of their own policies?

Good question.. If they continue to do PR B.S. spin they may give the impression to government they are actually focused on the problems and government 29 points. I think they government will be asking what real stateholder engagement they have had if any or did it all get done internally by auDA ( and their consultant Public Relations spinners).
