Do you really think I would have publicised this by writing a blog  
post about it _before_ doing all I could to reserver london.pm? :-)

I've "bought" it through Gandi. But it seems that buying it won't be  
final until Dec 6th and other people with a better claim on the domain  
could still grab it.

But you'll notice that AFNIC's community manager has left a comment on  
my blog post. I plan to email him and explain the concept of Perl  
Mongers to him. I'll see if he can give me any idea what our chances  
are.

Cheers,

Dave...
