.uk When is the .uk arriving?

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know exactly when the .uk is coming to market? What is the best way to ensure that you get the domain you want?
Thanks

You can get a UK Address there. Sign up for a prepaid account. Used it for years and never got charged, because really no mail goes there... So basically free...

Explicitly excludes PO Boxes so you'd need to have the prime address option. Interesting service...some options takes no privacy to a whole new level

Yeah, that's what the rules say lol

I was about to prove you wrong by showing you the Whois of my .cu.uk names, but the Whois says,
Data validation:
Registrant name and address awaiting validation

LOL

But, I never had an issue though...

Full info here. One of mine has been validated with a US address It should have a UK address but I guess it got changed with a mass update.

Dynadot already gives them, and ou can find a lot in the "help" there for ".uk" but there's something catchy => you need an administative address in the UK if you want a .uk-name.
That wasn't/isn't the case for .co.uk-domains
