[gnso-impl-irtpc-rt] A possible fix?

[James M. Bladel]

Hi folks.  Hope no one was discouraged following todays call.  These things are very difficult (if they weren't anyone could do them)...but not impossible!

So thinking a bit more, I believe we can address some of these issues by requiring two practices:

(1) Registrars must take two WHOIS "snapshots":  One to obtain the FOA, and one at Transfer execution.
(2) Registries must "lock" (ServerUpdateProhibited, ServerTransferProhibited,ServerDeleteProhibited) on all names known to be subject to a UDRP or TDRP.

Reasoning:  By comparing the WHOIS record at both occasions, the Gaining Registrar can spot any differences in Registrant data or Domain Status. This will provide the necessary visibility to invalidate the FOA and re-authorize the transfer.

Thoughts?

J.
