Ok, as discussed, thought I'd start a new thread for the candidate "question and answers".
--------------------------------------------
If you are elected or re-elected as a Demand Class director, what would be your position on the following? Please try and condense to short, simple answers.
This first tranche of question relates to day to day issues that affect domain owners.
- Thank you to everyone who submitted questions - I have just posted five to start with. We don't want to overwhelm anyone.
- This first tranche relate to day to day issues that affect domain owners. Other issues will be raised in the next few days.
- To our prospective candidates, I thank you in advance on behalf of the members of DNT for taking the time to let us know where you stand on issues.
It really is appreciated.

If you are elected or re-elected as a Demand Class director, what would be your position on the following? Please try and condense to short, simple answers.
This first tranche of question relates to day to day issues that affect domain owners.
- Do you support restrictions on domain monetisation? If yes, why? If no, will you work from within to have it abolished?
- Should all Australian’s be allowed to register an .au domain name without the need for an ABN? i.e. Free market principles. If no, in simple terms, why not?
If yes, will you work from within to have it abolished? (Bearing in mind that .co.uk and .co.nz have no restrictions and their system works well).
- Domain audits and complaints process. Please read this thread: http://www.dntrade.com.au/power-auda-t1524.html?t=1524&highlight=Glady . Do you think auDA’s determination
on this was fair? If yes, in simple terms, why? If no, will you work from within to have a better, fairer and inexpensive appeals process for domain name registrants?
- Over regulation: Please read this thread as an example: http://www.dntrade.com.au/auda-board-elections-t3630.html?p=25265#post25265 . Should domain owners be allowed to
develop their domains without restrictions or oversight by auDA? If no, in simple terms, why not? If yes, will you work from within to have it abolished?
(Bearing in mind that .co.uk and .co.nz have no restrictions and their system works well).
- What is your stance on allowing free Change of Registrant Transfers i.e. existing registrant period used for the new owner. (Same as .com and .co.nz rules).
In simple terms, are you “for” or “against”?
