[registrars] Deletion of domain name problems

[Rob Hall <rob@momentous.ca>]

It seems to me, as Ross stated, that the problem is caused by the method in 
which domains are deleted.

If we move to deleting them throughout the day, this will just make the 
problem worse, as multiple connections will be held all day as opposed to 
just in the morning hours.

What about moving to a queuing system for deleted domains such as what 
.info ran for their landrush.  The entire point of their queues was to deal 
with the high volume of initial registration, and this is exactly the same 
problem we are seeing with domains being deleted by the registry.

Would it not be possible for the registry to put all deleted domains aside 
each day, and allow registrars to queue the domains they wanted and deal 
with the assigning of these domains OUTSIDE of the normal RRP 
process.  This would get rid of the load on the RRP, and provide a fair way 
for registrars to register these deleted domains.

I realize this may take some new system development, but if we can agree to 
start down this path, it will solve a problem that is only going to get 
much worse.

Rob.
