.ASIA Land Rush Begins February 20
The Land Rush Period begins on February 20, followed by the Go-Live, DotAsia's first-come, first-served registration process on March 26, 2008. To date, the registry has already received over 30,000 application requests during their Sunrise phases and DotAsia expects up to one million registrations within the first year of operations.
The Land Rush phase requires VeriSign customers to have a registration order pending in their Digital Brand Manager (DBM) Portal by March 7. Orders placed or approved after March 7 will be processed during the DotAsia Go-Live on March 26. No additional supporting materials will be required for the Land Rush or Go-Live. Domain names receiving more than one application during the Land Rush period will be auctioned between the applicants.
