RE: [registrars] Recovery during grace period.

["Gomes, Chuck" <cgomes@verisign.com>]

We designed the RGP system according to the specifications that were
developed via ICANN processes.  To my recollection, this specific issue was
never addressed; at least, I was never involved in any exchanges about it.
Unfortunately with regard to the 5-day 'pending delete' period for deletes
not occurring during a grace period, the requirements said that a name
should immediately go into the RGP period.

If there is consensus on changing this, it should be worked through ICANN
processes as quickly as possible.

This is definetly incorrect - there was NO TALK of sacrificing the 5 day
registry hold in lieu of the redemption grace period. The hold period
has to remain (RRP defines a delete grace period). I hope verisign can
provide some clarification here
