We have been informed by eNom that they will be conducting maintenance on their backend next Sunday, August 17th 2008.

The maintenance window will not have any impact on existing registrations, however we will be unable to process any new registration requests from around 9am to 11am Irish time.

This only affects the following TLDs:

• com
• net
• org
• info
• biz
• mobi

This does not affect .eu, .ie or .co.uk, as we are directly accredited for those extensions.

Due to unprecedented demand on our new hosting platform we've a backlog of .ie domain names. This is because many of the domains submitted required further validation manually before we can submit them to the registry.

We're working on the store to gather this information correctly. It normally should have had, but because of some JavaScript problems in Internet Explorer 6 and 7 a lot of registrations got through without the details being correct.

We hope to get the new registrations that are pending fixed as soon as we can. Our development and engineering teams are working on the issue as a priority.
