Having it immediately renewed is good but it's pretty clear that this
domain should be migrated under PGCAC to be maintained with the
postgresql.org and other community domains and run off of the
postgresql.org name servers.

I'm happy to work to implement the domain on the postgresql.org name
servers so that when the registration transfer is done everything is
smoothly transistioned.

Christopher, Joshua, please let me know the timing of that transistion,
so that the postgresql.org nameservers have the up-to-date and correct
information for the domain. If there are any additional records beyond
the obvious ones, please let me know, so that they can be included.

Thanks!

Stephen
