I just registered a new .org and it had visibility from external NS not 
more than 15 minutes later (I would have paid closer attention to just 
how long it took, but didn't even think to check on it until reading 
this thread).

Maybe I just got lucky and hit their update window (I registered ~ 
3:15AM UTC on 11-July-2004 fwiw). Anyone know the status of .org
updates?
