I think to discourage "international" domain resellers in general would be quite easy. They want quick, easy transfers at no cost. AUDA charge a $100 fee for transfer (paid in advance) 2 week 'cooling off period' before transfer is sanctioned. I believe it is in the best interest of everyone to have an open market .. if someone overseas wants to sell product in Australia, they should be able to easily reg a .au name. If I wanted to sell something in New Zealand, the first thing I would be looking for is a .nz domain name. I would like to do that online and instantly. If the terms and conditions for reselling the name sounded tough .. that wouldnt worry me. (unless I was a reseller, it would put me off instantly) History seems to indicate that eventually nearly governmanet sanctioned 'board' relaxes its control and opens the market.
