The vast majority of drops passing from 'Renewal Required' to 'Suspended' actually go on to drop anyway. There's no God given right for members to expect to get them all. Contacting a current registrant is just as legitimate as any other method used, and is the only realistic option for non-Nominet members to get a name without having to place a 3rd party backorder.
Domain names should be able to be (re-)registered by anyone who wishes, but owing to the 'membership-based' structure that ties Nominet hands behind it's back, the only means available to it to influence the flow of registrations that may head to the drop is the current ad campaign and email reminders.
