<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=2 face="Courier New"><span style='font-size:

authorizing an issues report, the focus of the study should be on the
"slamming" the registries issue and "daughter registrar"
issue that the Business Constituency (BC) has raised as problems below.
It should not encompass individual registrar business practices –
products and services provided to their customers prior to deletion. The
post-deletion contention issue and explosion in new registrars are the only
related issues that address the concerns raised in the BC draft resolution
(i.e. “impacts stability” or causes “unforeseen strains on
the ability of registries and registrars to manage their business
efficiently.”). This is the same approach ICANN and the RC took with
the Workshop on Re-registration of Deleted Domain Names held in <st1:place
w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Cape Town</st1:City></st1:place>.

style='color:black'><br>
When a domain name is cancelled, the registry releases the domain name for
re-registration following a redemption grace period and a notice period of
pending delete. In many cases there is more than one entity that wishes to
re-register the domain. The time at which a particular domain name will be
available for re-registration is known to registrars. This causes contention at
the registry, with many registrars sending add commands to seek to register the
name at the same time. This process is an inefficient use of both registry and
registrar resources. This problem has been most noticeable for the com/net
registry due to its large volume of names, but may equally apply to other
registries as the number of names under management grows.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
color:black'>The purpose of the workshop is to receive industry input on
possible long-term solutions to the contention problem. This discussion is also
timely because the contention problem also applies at the time a new TLD is
created, and a new set of domain names becomes available for registration.
Therefore, the workshop results and ensuing steps will become part of the
process for introducing new TLDs.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=3 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
color:black'>The workshop will not discuss the various mechanisms introduced by
some registrars for re-allocating registered domain names after expiry to
different registrants, and the workshop will not discuss the proposed WLS
service. Although these mechanisms may limit the number of names that are made
available for re-registration, domain names will still be released by the registry
for re-registration, and thus the contention problem will still exist.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
