RE: [nc-deletes] two additional issues


Title: RE: [nc-deletes] two additional issues

In relation to (2) there is a difference between buying one year and getting another year free and buying one year and the registrar paying for another year unbeknownst to the registrant.  The former I have no problem with.  The latter is more problematic and I agree with Jordyn that this should be covered.

(PS my UDRP points and impact statement are going to be late - sorry.  I will try to get them both to you on Monday).

(1) I'm also comfortable making the policy retroactive after 180 days.
(2) I'd like to get a little registrar perspective here.  In some
cases, I think they should have the option of continuing to provide the
service for free to the registrant.  If that's never going to happen,
and the only chance is that the registrar will move the domain to an
"unpaid names department", then I think we could modify the requirement
to delete domains to also include this case.
