In general, this is quite hard but well justified, and we don't always
have to be nice.
A couple of observations on "to registries":
"Adding small fee, such as 25 cents per Domain to those registrants who
kept their names using add grace period may be one solution, but we are
not fully convinced."
[I suppose you mean, those who deleted their names in the add grace
period, or something like that]
This is not something (for what I understand) that registries can decide
on their own, it's ICANN that has to decide that (right?), so it should
be addressed to the ICANN Board instead.
For the rest, I think that this is perhaps not top priority for
registrants (I mean, "Registerfly" is more important) but still quite
important, and we should push ICANN to start doing something, at least
studying the matter. So let's try to release this in Lisbon.
