RE: [registrars] Motion for a Vote on Grace Period Deletion Fee

John,
I think you may have proved the point of some of the others who have
commented.  http://www.snaptraffic.com is now just a lonely parked domain
with dotster.  Maybe the reason their domain is only parked is because
somebody (Verisign) stopped the practice.

Personally, I'm not saying I'm for the practice or against it.  But if it's
allowed I think this will be worse than the 2pm EST drop.  Each registrar
will have over a million domains and only keep the ones that make money.  Oh
wait, don't I remember reading something that says that domain registrars
are not supposed to own domains.

Donny
