Second Advisory Concerning Equitable Allocation of Shared Registration System


📅 -

(10 August 2001) As previously reported in an advisory dated 16 July 2001, many registrars have recently been experiencing severe difficulty in accessing the .com/.net/.org Shared Registration System (SRS) during the hours in which expiring names are deleted. The bandwidth and connection limitations described in that advisory have not been successful in ensuring that every registrar enjoys equivalent access. A few registrars continue to consume a large share of SRS resources, making it difficult or impossible for other registrars to conduct their normal business.

As described in the below notice from the registry operator, batch releases of deleted .com, .net and .org domain names will be temporarily suspended to assure continued service quality within the SRS. They will be released once a satisfactory plan is implemented to return them to the pool of available names under which all registrars receive equivalent access.

ICANN's Domain Name Supporting Organization has already been advised of the situation and has begun to discuss possible measures for handling expiring names. Members of the community are urged to participate in the DNSO's discussions, so that all viewpoints can be considered in developing measures for fair allocation of expiring names.
