Occassional failures are pertinent in every aspect of life, and that's applicable to all. 

Criticisms are good, as long as they're intended right. The extent of initial reaction here simply didn't jibe with my perception. Recognizing and quoting this as an act of negligence would have sufficed.

As far as the havocs and losses during outage are concerned, I'd imagine they have proper accounting in place to measure appropriate metrics for *critical* service losses; and would plan accordingly for proactive future actions -- if (e)kantipur values itself as much as some of us here do.

@sleepless, I appreciate your clarification on Top-Level Domain. I had that term all over me due to a recent debate on whether or not a domain name from .xxx TLD was appropriate for acquisition (trademark retention purpose). Apologies for the term misrepresentation.
