[registrars] Request for Information on Domain Tasting

[Jeffrey Eckhaus]

All,

 

I understand this has been sent previously to the constituency, but feel
the need to resend due to the importance of the issue.

 

This Issues Report and topic affects all of our business models
regardless if you taste domains or not. Some of the questions on the
survey:

 

Should ICANN impose a minimum registration fee on domain registrations?

 

Do you believe that domain tasting impacts the security and stability of
the Internet?

 

Some of the proposed solutions are the complete elimination of the 5 day
Grace Period. 

 

These are issues that we as Registrars should help decide and your input
is needed. 

 

The link below takes you directly to the ICANN website and the location
for the BigPulse survey

Thank you for your patience,

 

Jeff

Request for Information on Domain Tasting

10 August 2007

 

In view of the increase in domain tasting (definitions below), the GNSO

Council recently considered an Issues Report on Domain Tasting and

resolved to form an ad hoc group for further fact-finding on the effects

of this practice. The ad hoc group has prepared these questions to

assist in gathering facts and opinions, while inviting both qualitative

and quantitative input. The group would especially appreciate

statistical and other empirical evidence to support your responses, or

references to potential sources of information.
