Re: [gnso-irtpd] here's the little summary of that sequence of events i rattled off on the call just now -- registrant role in TDRP

[Volker Greimann <vgreimann@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I still feel that giving registrants access to the TDRP process dilutes 
its purpose as an inter-registrar dispute process designed to deal with 
process violations and will turn it into a transfer dispute process 
between registrants, dragging registrars and registries into a civil 
conflict between two parties. This will result in increased costs and 
work for contracted parties.
If a registrar is violating transfer processes, there will be sufficient 
incentive for affected registrars to call them out and if necessary 
invoke the current process.
What we need to look at instead is if creating an alternate process 
between registrant and former registrant regarding the ownership of a 
domain name makes sense.
I am also a big fan of the line "He who wants to hear the music should 
pay for the band!", i.e. if a registrant wants a process to be invoked, 
he should be prepared to pony up the fees, just as with the UDRP. Adding 
a "loser pays" clause makes sense to me, but in that case it will remain 
the risk of the complainant that the respondent cannot pay/is 
unreachable/etc...
