.christmas seems to be owned by Uniregistry[0], which also owns at least 26 other TLDs, so I think we can expect them to continue providing service.

My concern doesn't lie with the TLD registrar, but with the interest in, say, maintaining a .christmas domain in non-christmas times of the year.

There is chrismas every year.

[rumanator]

Yes, and it's relevant for a month tops?

Who will be more compelled to click on a Christmas link in, say, July? A christmas-themed link in February or March seems stale as hell.

We saw a steady flow of traffic all through last year on a few .christmas domains from last year's advent calendars.

I don't think they seem stale, but perhaps out of season Either way, we're committed to keep this content online for the foreseeable future, and write a new edition next year if people find it interesting.

Domains expire after a year, so it you'll always be renewing around Christmas. Unless you were referring to maintaining the site itself, which yes, probably won't have any new postings around July.
