[registrars] FW: NeuStar submission on Modification to the AGP

["Nevett, Jonathon" <jnevett@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Registrars:

 

FYI -- NeuStar just submitted the following funnel request to ICANN
regarding modification of the Add-Grace Period.  Please note the 10%
threshold.  They believe that this will end domain tasting in .biz.  If
you have any questions for NeuStar, Jeff Neuman is the point of contact.

 

Here is the opening paragraph:

 

Technical Description of the Proposed Service: Currently there are no
limitations on the number of deletions that a registrar can process
during the five-day AGP. The proposed service would limit the number of
AGP deletions where a registrar could receive a full registration fee
credit. This limit would be determined each month, with a maximum of 50
per month or 10% of that registrar's net new monthly domain name
registrations, whichever is greater. There would be no change to the
current registry interface.  A registrar would be permitted to delete as
many names as it wished during the five-day AGP, receiving credit
throughout the month. However, at the end of the NeuStar's normal
monthly billing cycle the Registrar's account would be debited for the
full value of the domain name registrations that exceeded the month's
set threshold.
