to backup your point.... from a "Reseller Update" dated 6th April, Adam Eisner (Tucows) wrote... "Tomorrow marks one year since .EU names were made available to the general public. We'd like to issue a reminder that the registration year technically ends for a .EU name on the last day of the last month of the term. For example, if a domain name is registered on April 7, 2006, its expiry date will be April 30, 2007, and a renewal will be applied at that time. However, in order to prevent confusion around this registry policy, OpenSRS will typically update the expiration date of renewed names prior to being renewed at the registry." there's someone from Tucows telling us last Friday that the domains would expire at the end of the month, now today someone else at Tucows is telling us that they expire immediately. anyone at Tucows know which of these is actually occurring ?
