Actually, the status is a bit more interesting, while "tirol" shows up
as "Expired", it does not appear on the list of TLDs eligible for a
renewal request, so perhaps it is in fact in some sort state that is
equivalent to "Pending", while being nominally "Expired".  I am curious
to see what happens next...
