HI Simon, A couple of notes, based on your comments below:
* "In progress" represents a state a name can fall into if we've been unable to communicate with the registry. We automatically try to re- connect with the registry on a regular basis in order to fix the name. * Nominet is FINALLY moving an EPP-based system (hooray!), which will allow registrars to communicate with them using a more standardized protocol used by major registries. We're planning a move to EPP when the system leaves beta. Hope this helps, adam -- Adam Eisner Product Manager, Domains Tucows Inc.
