http://www.netlink.co.nz/~mark/netsites-growth.html [still updated]
DNC has said since last year 'we are planning to offer .nz stats soon'. I even offered to do them for free.
There are stats in, eg, the DNC Newsletters which are linked from: http://www.dnc.org.nz/index.php?clsid=1&catid=34 ("Newsletters" on the DNC site -- I'm not sure how stable the URL above is.) According to the summaries the stats seem to go back to the start of the year. Alas, they're buried in tables in PDF files and so harder to extract.

[netsite changes suspended pending zone tranfer policy review]
I got asked on 1 July by Nick Griffin to not publish the changes list until some review I wasn't aware of that is apparently currently happening was completed.
Interesting. Neither Keith Davidson nor I was able to find an online reference to this review on either the DNC site or the InternetNZ site. Keith Davidson thinks it must have been mentioned only in hard copy form. I've already suggested it'd be nice if such reviews were notified a bit more publically so affected people could comment on them.
Well the growth stats are the primary reason I'm still doing it. The other pages merely fall out from doing that.
Sure. The other pages are the more useful though at least to any non-maths analysis. Especially the search page since the current whois doesn't support any wildcarding. Ewen

It was buried in the June DNC news letter (http://dnc.org.nz/content/june_03_newsletter.pdf) June 16th NZOC meeting: "The current Zone Transfer Policy is not sufficiently detailed to operate in the SRS environment. NZOC has agreed to review this policy now. Consultation on this review will begin in July. Until the review is completed there will be a moratorium on new applications for the zone file." We could read it in the minutes of the NZOC meeting of course (opps, silly me, no minutes are out for it :-) Steven Heath PS Is this where I say it is SOP for NZOC minutes to be late, if issued at all? :-)
