.AI Domain Registry has announced that registration of first level .AI domain names will begin on September 15, 2009. Currently .AI Domain Registry accepts the open registration of com.ai domains but beginning September 15 the Registry will accept the open registration of .AI (i.e. domain.ai) as well.
It is important that .com.ai domain holders register their domain names with this new extension in order to avoid the risk that they could be registered by any other interested party.
The registration fee for domains directly under .AI with Registrar Marcaria.com will be USD 150 for a 2 year registration period.

Guatemala Domain Registry is opening up the .GT domain name space to allow for registrations at the second level by the end of 2009 in addition to registration at the existing third level registration such as .COM.GT.
Prior to the launch to the public, there will be a Sunrise period when all holders of .COM.GT domains will be able to apply for their second level .GT equivalent.
In addition to enabling registrations at the second level, the Registry is working on new software to manage registrations. The new system will allow for the registration of second level .GT domains, as well as the .COM.GT domains currently offered.
The new software is still under development, but it is expected to be launched before the end of 2009.
