Having watched the RegisterFly debacle unfold on a
day-by-day basis for quite some time I have come to
realize that we have a need to develop new policies to
better protect the registrant community.

In particular, I have read many allegations along
these lines: "A number of domains were 'hijacked' by
RF changing domain contact details".

This type of transfer is not covered by the Consensus
Policy on Transfer of Registrations Between Registrars
because it does not happen "between" registrars but
rather through a single registrar.

What we need is a policy to govern transfers between
registrants at a single registrar so that the
interests of all parties to the transfer may be
protected.

We don't want to have registrants at the mercy of the
capricious whims of a rogue actor. If a change of
registrant is enacted in such a manner, a process must
be in place to dispute improper changes to the
registration record.

I call upon this community to request an issues report
on this subject so that the GNSO may develop
appropriate policy.

Danny Younger
