Same temperature here at my place, but the wind is about 7 mph. Damned cold and going down to -19c before the night is over.

Domains in the freezer — are they safe? Every year, thousands of callers to the Domain and Registry Hotline aren't sure about the safety of items stored in their freezers. The confusion seems to be based on the fact that few people understand how freezing protects domains. Here is some information on how to freeze domains safely and how long to keep it.

What Can You Freeze?

You can freeze almost any domain. However, once the content (such as a spam) is out of the can, you can't freeze it as well.

Are Frozen Domains Safe?

Domains stored constantly at 0 °C will always be safe. Only the quality suffers with lengthy freezer storage.

More information about the auctions, from this article (http://rian.ru/technology/20101130/302775660.html):

Около 18 тысяч имен из 24,5 тысячи доменов, выставленных на торги, уже выкуплены.

По итогам уже завершившихся в RU-CENTER торгов средняя стоимость доменных имен составила от 600 до 1,2 тысячи рублей (по этой цене было продано 93% доменов из 18 тысяч имен). Максимальная цена имени достигла 40 тысяч долларов, а в общей сложности RU-CENTER заработал на продаже доменов в зоне .рф 24 миллиона рублей. По словам Лесникова, эти деньги будут переданы на благотворительность.

В настоящее время в доменной зоне .рф зарегистрировано более 600 тысяч доменных имен, 230 тысяч из которых уже делегированы (подготовлены для размещения сайтов).

Edited Google translation:

About 18,000 names out of the 24.5 thousand domains put up for auction have already been bought.

Concerning the already completed RU-CENTER auctions, the average price of a domain name was 600 to 1,2 thousand rubles [19 to 38 USD] (93% of the 18,000 domain names sold at that price). The maximum price for a name reached 40 thousand dollars, and the total that RU-CENTER earned on the sale of domains in the .рф zone was 24 million rubles [762,000 USD]. According Lesnikov, the money will be donated to charity.

There are current more than 600,000 domain names registered in the .рф zone, 230,000 of which have already been delegated (prepared for the development of sites).

600 to 1,2 thousand rubles

600.00 RUB = 19.0545 USD

12,000.00 RUB = 381.177 USD

600.00 RUB = 19.0545 USD

12,000.00 RUB = 381.177 USD

Did I misunderstand? I thought 1,2 thousand rubles meant 1,200.00 rubles (38 dollars).
