Hi James,
excellent points there. I think the case with your example is that this
is not actually a case where a registrar is a party to the dispute.
Maybe it is a star witness required to provide the information only it
can provide, but not a party. Those roles are better left to prior and
current registrant.
This however begs the question if ICANN should implement another process
for registrants to solve their disputes, or if this may not be better
relegated to a future re-design of the UDRP? We could for example make a
recommendation that the UDRP be expanded to cover also domain ownership
issues in any future revision of that policy.
Best,
Volker
