No, it looks like the old NSI-InterNIC site.

Note that I said it was a hybrid that involved registry and

As far as I can see, the InterNIC site was where NSI fulfilled their duties
to the USG and the networksolutions.com site was where they offered a value
added service.
It is of course entirely self serving that NSI now claims the InterNIC site
as a Registrar site rather than a Registry site.

at www.asensio.com in a document other than the press release cited by

They are not sending them to the registry now. They are
