"It is one way of resolving a

Isn't this great.  We get lectures about fairness and equity and now we see
"one way".  Absolutely true statement.  The only problem is that it is
probably the worst way.

I suggest folks pick up any dictionary and look up three words: equity, fair
and convenient.

What we have here is a convenient situation, because it is not fair and
definitely not equitable. In fact the proposed process is an insult.

The auction is for the right to obtain the licence for that name when the
new registry system goes live next year. It is one way of resolving a
situation where multiple parties which to register the same name.

The licence is for two years, and is renewable for further 2 year periods
provided the registrant is still eligible under the policy in place at the
time they registered the name.
