After the Sun Rise I period (07/12/2005 - 07/02/2006) and Sun Rise II Period that started immediately after period I ends on the 07/04/2006 at 10.00 O’clock BLT. The restraining dam of restricted registration will be opened. This is the first come first served period known as Land Rush.
The sunrise period was created to allow organizations and companies to register their names thus protecting them against being registered by name speculators and cyber squarters. But the good news is that beginning from the 7th of April, .eu registration is opened to all (who qualify that is). Due to the anticipated rush for registration,some accredited agents have started pre-registering and if you think they are crazy please read this; - on the 7th Feb.
