The relaunch of Colombia's ccTLD got underway within the last couple of hours and the new registry operator is already reporting several hundred domains registered. According to a "tweet" from their official account 322 domains were registered in the first few minutes.

While the full launch of .co is still a few weeks away today's launch is probably a good "warm up" for the new registry operator.

You can currently register com.co via a limited number of registrars, while there will be only ten registrars offering the .co domain when it the launch takes place in March

In common with most launch phases, trademark holders will be able to register names prior to the general launch.

While the squabble over .eco might not have vanished, it's not as "big" a news item this week..

Neustar already runs the registry backend services for .tel, .biz and several ccTLDs.

I mentioned some time ago that GoDaddy and Afilias had joined forces to bid on the .us tender.

Adam Strong reports that the US Department of Commerce has decided to renew Neustar's contract
