Anti-cybersquatting measures turned out to be infective and the center plans to review the rules of submission process, Russian news agency Prime-Tass reported [RUS]. It's not clear what will happen to the registered domains. Some sources claim that all previously approved domains will be deleted.

Just to say hi Veronica, and thanks for the coverage. I guess this issue is quite important to you.
Keep an eye on the Latvian Abroad blog. He is following day by day developments in their housing boom.
Also, do you know Daniel Antal’s Hungary blog. He has had a couple of interesting posts on ageing lately.
Best wishes,
Edward
