Re: [registrars] WHOIS expiration date for Auto-renewed domains

[Rick Wesson <wessorh@ar.com>]

I am happy to take the comments on this thread and formulate a proposal to

comment.

If you have a proposal, comment, suggestion or observation please post it
to this list.  I'll post the summary and draft proposal by EOB this
friday.
