Re: German KK-applications and domain transfers



problem that may come up is that denic (german domain registry) needs the
administrative contact to be someone in germany which throws some obstacles
at registering a domain from foreign countries without having a german
department or at least someone that will take care of the domain and give
his name to be responsible...

greets,
