@TelBlogger, @Holstern
There's not much point in hanging around the TelTalk Forum unless you at least believe in the .TEL idea (a single point of contact that works seamlessly on all internet devices) though no doubt you would agree with me that Telnic's IMPLEMENTATION of that idea has been a disaster !
It's obviously impossible for any of us to be certain of .TEL's future until it is clear if/when someone else is given the opportunity and is prepared to pick up the reins.
My reading of the situation - and BTW both
Kash and
Ian Bowen-Morris say on their personal .tels that the Percy Street office is still open - is that the change in Registerd Office (also reflected on the Telnic/Telnames company web sites) to the new accountants' address is in preparation for the sale of the two companies in the very near future.
Remember if they don't take action in 2015 they have to apply to ICANN for renewal (it's not automatic) of the .TEL licence in 2016 - my guess is that there could be some valid objections submitted to ICANN if they attempt this - not least of which would be their financial situation in another 12 months time !
On the basis of the above logic I've taken a punt and renewed (the cost is not that much at Name.com) several of my premium .tels - I may be proved right or wrong in doing this - TIME WILL VERY SHORTLY .TEL !
