Re: [ga] charging for renewals after expiry

[Rick H Wesson <wessorh@ar.com>]

Abel,

most registrars (including alice's registry) contain a provision in their
registration agreements that reserve the right to charge a customer to
"revive" a registration that has expired.

there may be alot of work involved ro revive registrations hense the
proision for the charge.
