I’ve been watch­ing it for the past 3 or 4 years. Who­ever owns it doesn’t appear to be using it for a whole lot — prob­ably just email if any­thing — and it def­in­itely doesn’t seem to be a domain squat­ter. I was start­ing to think it was someone who registered the domain and for­got about it. When they for­got to renew the domain last month I figured it was finally going to be released.

Last night — the date the domain expired — I checked it and it was lis­ted by CIRA as SUSPD. I.e., it had entered the 30-​​day “sus­pen­ded” period where the owner has one final chance to renew before it’s released. I think CIRA charges a pen­alty for renew­ing a domain while it’s sus­pen­ded, so who­ever owns this domain appar­ently really wants it for some­thing. I guess I can’t be too upset about it. Oh well.
