> How on earth does one distinguish between By asking them? > How is that different behavior from a squatter? You're just sitting on a domain until someone comes along who meets your criteria I don't register the domain in the first place unless I have a good idea for what I'd like to do with it. I'm not registering them to sell... but I recognize that someone else may well also have a solid project idea, and the time right now to execute on it. I'd like a way to graciously give way to those people. If there is no such way, then I'll just keep the domain until I have the time to do the project I had in mind. > Nor would I want to see a vetting policy established. I think you misunderstood. I don't want a general vetting policy, just a way for (the minority) of people who feel domains should actually be used, to transfer domains among themselves. > Part of the beauty of the current system, is that anyone can buy an unused domain on a whim. Sure, I'm not talking about changing that. I'm just trying to create a third choice, beyond "I don't have time for my idea yet, so I'll sit on this domain until I'm ready" vs. "I'll let this domain expire and it definitely will be squatted when I'm ready." I want a 3rd option that recognizes that other people have project ideas.
