Hi Mike,

I'd like to get an update on what's happening with the PloneEdu site.
I still own these domain names, and they are all expiring on Feb. 2nd.

PLONEEDU.COM  	
PLONEEDU.INFO 	
PLONEEDU.ORG 	
PLONENGO.COM
PLONENGO.INFO
PLONENGO.ORG

I would love to transfer these to the Plone Foundation and then have
them pointing to the appropriate IP address.

Nate
