No, it is quite real, and though this particular release was posted on April 1 (April 2 GMT), this has already beeen the subject of previous announcements over the past several weeks and is not a surprise to (most) Internet site administrators. An introduction to the InterNIC "Transition and Modernization of the Internet Registration Service", was published as an Internet RFC (RFC-1400) last month. As for Mr. Pushpendra Mohta, I can assure you he is perfectly real, and a nice person as well. (We have met at a couple of conferences.) -- Michael C. Berch mcb@presto.ig.com / mcb@net.bio.net
