<h3>How we learning about new hosts</h3>
<ol>
	<li>Pulling from external sources:
	<ul>
		{% for source in sources %}
			<li>{{ source.url }}</li>
		{% endfor %}
	</ul>
	</li>
	<li>Adding through our service.
	</li>
</ol>

<h3>Publish requirements</h3>
To get published a host must meet the following criteria:
<ul>
	<li>Must have been added at least 3 days ago</li>
	<li>Must be up</li>
	<li>Must be approved by admin</li>
</ul>
<p style="notice">Admin's approval isn't really necessary, it is only needed in
order to eliminate possible hijacking and mass registration attempts.
</p>

<h3>Expiration</h3>
<p>
Hosts gets checked for availability every 12 hours. If the host is alive, registration period
prolongated 1 month. Until this period ends, hosts are published in our hosts.txt.
</p>
<p>
When a host has expired, its name/key pair will be keept for 2 years but will not be
published any longer. Until this period ends, it's impossible to register this hostname
again.
</p>

<h3>Deletion of expired hosts</h3>
<p>
Hosts expired 2 years ago get completely deleted from our database and become
available for a new registration.
</p>

<h3>Deletion of dead hosts</h3>
<p>
If a host was added from an external source and we've never seen it alive, it
will be deleted after 1 year since its adding date, and after 14 days if it is
was added through our registration service.
