Hello,

An error has been showing for about half an hour or so already for .org domain searches and registrations: "The central registry is down for maintenance; please try again later."

Other registrars (i.e. GoDaddy) seem to be able to search just fine for .org; do we have an estimate as to when this can be resolved?

Thanks, it's okay now!

Yes it's strange that searching is allowed in the others. I sure hope they don't make domains look like it's available when it is not, as that would be misleading.

The .ORG central registry was down for maintenance early this morning.  The maintenance is finished now, so you should be able to search for .ORG domains.

I do not know how other domain registrars handle the situation when the central registries go offline to do maintenance.
