"This demonstrates that auDA is serious about enforcing ethical behaviour in
the domain name industry, and is prepared to act swiftly to protect
registrants," said auDA CEO, Chris Disspain.

Why not the same sense of urgency or swiftness when it comes to the 'new'
auDRP ?
Why should domain licences that were issued prior to 1 August 2002 be
offered grace and perceived protection until renewal??

	"Domain name licences that were issued before 1 August 2002 are not subject
to a mandatory administrative proceeding under the auDRP:
	until the domain name licence is renewed; or
	unless the registrant voluntarily elects to be bound by the auDRP before
their domain name licence is renewed."

Seems like auDA is attempting to enforce the new auDRP with a clear bias
that seemingly attempts to protect current domain holders despite there
being considerable time since a Dispute Resolution Process was available to
parties with competing or superseding rights?

Is everyone happy with the auDRP being geared with such bias?

Surely it is improper to suggest that antecedent and other rights should be
forced to wait and only exercised when or after a renewal become due?
