.info .info question on Afilias whois info

[hawkeye]

I was searching a name, and came up with this info as the registrant-
Afilias Ltd / Sunrise Pending Reallocation

Anyone familiar with this, and what it means? I thought sunrise on .info ended 5+ years ago.

Also is the domain related to this response, or any like domain, available to reg if one contacts Afilias?

They were False sunrise applications I believe - and they have not re-released many names caught up in this.

Thanks Mark. Do you know what, if any, plans they may have to do with them? This was a pretty prime word I was checking on, and it seems it's more than a waste to let it sit for no one to use.
