Faithful readers know that I fear that hraunfoss, the FCC server named for an Icelandic waterfall, is slowly drying up. Well, just today I noticed an example of a server that has all but dried up.
If PIA thinks you don't have an FCC RN, they direct you to svartifoss2.fcc.gov, which used to host the FCC's CORES registration system. Svartifoss2 apparently still exists, but seems to exist only to forward requests to the appropriate server.
It seems that hraunfoss has avoided a similar fate for now, but it makes me worry. With the melting of the glaciers in Iceland, the actual waterfalls are endangered, and it would be nice to think that the FCC could at least carry on the names.
