How long after the renewal date passes do .ie domains become available? I’ve searched for an IEDR expiry policy. This is the best I could find: http://www.siliconrepublic.com/news/news.nv?storyid=single6024
Is the .ie whois renewal date updated frequently enough to be useful?
For example, suppose I wanted to register a domain that was supposedly due for renewal a month ago 🙂

Sorry about not replying to this sooner
The way the renewals are handled can be a bit confusing to an outsider.
If you allow about 60 days or so from the renewal date you wouldn’t be too far off …
Of course the domain you mentioned is now showing a 2008 renewal date
