when will “XNS reserved” inames be available to register?
You’ve gone to 2idi to register a 50-year iname only to discover that the one you want isn’t available: it’s an unclaimed “XNS Reserved” name. The message there says they’ll be available when “EGS ends” but that’s kind of cryptic.
So: when will these names be available?
The answer: all unclaimed XNS names will be available (on a first come first served basis) at the upcoming global launch scheduled for May 1. This date may slip as there’s still a lot of stuff to get done, however we’ll be sure provide any updates to the schedule as they become known.
