Changes

On December 30, 2001, Verisign proposed the implementation of the Waiting List Service ([[WLS]]) to the [[DNSO]]. Based on its proposal, the WLS will provide registrants the opportunity to reserve their preferred domain names that are currently registered by other subscribers for one year. Registrars will directly reserve and transact with Verisign to reserve the domain name under the WLS. A domain name will only be transferred to an individual who made the reservation if the original owner submitted a request to delete the domain name. Verisign proposed a $35 fee for the service.<ref>[http://archive.icann.org/en/meetings/bucharest/vgrs-wls-proposal-30dec01.pdf Domain Name Wait Listing Service]</ref>
