I'm talking with him, so I will close this topic if finally we agree to renew with my account.

Waiting for some news.

I would appreciate if you do it as soon as possible, because the domain expired two days ago, and we're in a hurry.

Thanks in advance.

I will contact the current domain owner and he will post a message here giving permision to do this action.

Of course, we also want the domain mapping to be transferred.

It looks like the domain name just expired a couple of days ago so speed is important to keep from needing to pay a renewal penalty - the domain mapping should probably also be transferred

I have flagged this for the staff to help you

I've got a blog with some friends, using WordPress (http://galacticow.wordpress.com).

Our domain (http://galacticow.com) was purchased by another friend, and now that domain has expired.

First, I don't know if I should pay the $5 domain registration again (if it is already registred, even it has expired, I suppose that it is still registered).

Second: our friend (who purchased the domain), is wondering if it is possible to change the account which owns that domain. It is linked to him, but he doesn't actually owns the blog, but the domain (we didn't have credit card when we first purchased the domain and asked him to do it).

So, I'm wondering if WordPress staff can do some gestions to change domain owner if it is accepted by the current domain owner.

I don't know if I have explained myself good enough, so if there is any doubt, just reply with a question.

If everything is clear, please, give us some information to solve that problem.

Thank you in advance.

PS: I meant transferring domain owner to another wp account.
