APTLD on Oct 1: Today is a special day for Hoster.by as the nation celebrates the 5th anniversary of .БЕЛ, the IDN for Belarus. Boasting over 14K registrations, this is a very vibrant Cyrillic-langugage ccTLD- our warmest congratulations to our colleagues and friends and best wishes for many years of a very productive work for the country and global community!

• Hoster.by: Dear colleagues, thank you very much for the kind wishes! Last year we were happy to announce 15K registrations in .БЕЛ, but unfortunately this year has been rather tough. Nevertheless, we hope that 2021 will be much better and we will continue doing our best to manage belarusian national TLDs. Especially, having APTLD as our reliable partner

#DNSFlagDay2020 will be held on Oct 1 and will have 2 objectives: define a default #DNS packet size of 1,232 bytes and force the switch to #TCP transport when more information needs to be sent. Learn more in Hugo Salgado’s (NIC Chile) blog > http://bit.ly/DNSFlagDayen

It is with a deep sorrow that we are sharing very sad news from Timor Leste of an early passing away of our dear colleague and friend Eng. Nicolau Santos Celestino, CEO of the. TL registry.
He will be remembered as a very nice and easygoing and amicable fellow, a real patriot of his country and a great enthusiast and supporter of APTLD. He always was full of plans and was about to take on a new project to revamp the. TL registry’s operation…. Farewell, dear friend, may you rest in peace and we will be missing your great sense of humor, candour and vigor.     Post (and Comments)
