A while ago, the .br registry (Brasil) announced the launch of the .net.br domain. Today the sunrise for this extension started. The sunrise will last for 6 months. During this period, everyone who owns a .com.br name, can register this name under the .net.br extension. There’s only one condition, the .com.br name needs to be registered before April 6th 2009. The sunrise ends on October 6th 2009.
The sunrise period will be followed by the landrush, which will start on October 27th 2009. During this period names will be registered on a first come, first served basis.
