Nominet are updating .uk dispute resolution procedures
Posted by: Marketing Guy Date posted: November 21st, 2006 Published in: Domain NamesNominet are asking for feedback to update their .uk domain name dispute resolution procedures from anyone who registers domain names for themselves or on the behalf of others.
More information is available here.
We are updating Nominet’s Dispute Resolution Service (DRS) to keep the service quick, simple, fair and approachable for all who use it, and to make sure that it keeps abreast of changes in the external environment.
They are also proposing an up front fee to lodge a complaint in an attempt to reduce “poor quality complaints” (or “assholes”).
The consultation has 3 stages:
- An online survey (live shortly)
- A detailed consultation document (pdf / web version)
- An outreach program (meetings and events tba)
After the consultation is finished they will be published details on policy changes.
Good to see Nominet embracing communication with their users - this can be a great way for legitimate businesses to influence UK domain name policy.
