.us dropping cycle?

[skylight]

is .us dropping cycle different from the rest?

i follow a few .us domains, but it seems it is in pending delete status for more than 15 days....

Or it depends on the registrar? But it is already in pending delete...which means it is not controlled by the registrar anymore...

>>>
The Redemption Grace Period is the 35 days following the deletion of a domain. The purpose of RGP is to allow registrars and/or registrants to correct for inadvertent deletions. During the first 30 days of the Redemption Grace Period, registrars may request the Registry to redeem the deleted domain, and thus restore it to it's original disposition prior to deletion. Redemptions may NOT be performed during the final 5 days of the RGP. The whois record will indicate if the domain is eligible for redemption. Domain that are eligible will be marked "PendingDelete (restorable)". Ineligible domains will have the status "PendingDelete (scheduled for release)". All redemption requests must be submitted through your registrar
