Just a quick one to tag onto the end of this:
I was told by Nominet at the last DRS Consultation Event that they would be emailing all registrants to inform them of this contractual change, but as far as I can see this has not happened.
I shall be asking Nominet why and posting the reply here.
I'm of the view that the new DRS policy/proceedure does not conform with the consultation responses, in particular the issue of a an 'upfront fee' to start a DRS as I believe the majority opted for something around the £100 mark, which I'm guessing would have put pay to the supposedly large number of vexatious complaints Nominet will now recieve.
Maybe someone will argue the processes Nominet have followed in implementing these new rules are not correct and file a Judicial Review application against Nominet in the High Court. That person of course would only have 3 months to do so from the date of implementation - i.e. 'the clock is now ticking'.
I'm am of course not advocation such action, just pointing out the posibilities.

Sneezy.
