I called Network Solutions at 877.628.8686 and spoke with Deleen, who was kind enough to grant a 15 day service extension for SQUEAK.ORG. The domain names should come back on line in a couple of hours or so.
I was not able to make payment on the account because Network Solutions requires that either Dan Ingalls or Goran Krampe contact them to confirm that this is a legitimate web site.
Goran, if you would be able to call Network Solutions and confirm that SQUEAK.ORG is legitimate, that would be a big help. You do not need to make payment, just let them know that we are legitimate, then I or someone else will pay the bill. They have an international number at 1.570.708.8788 that should work for you. Thanks a lot!
I do not have an email address for Dan handy, but if someone has the address, please let him know that Squeak is still alive and kicking, and if he can confirm as much to Network Solutions we would be grateful.
We have 15 days to handle this now, so no panic.
Dave
I think only Dan Ingalls or possibly Goran or Craig (sorry I can't quite remember) will have to help to fix this.
