] The UDRP is basically used in a different situation - i.e. its used when one
] party says "I have superior rights to that name, and I'm NOT going to pay
] you for it".  

The UDRP is used for cases where "You have the domain, you have NO
rights to that name, and I have trade mark rights to the name".

If it's an argument about superior rights ("both of us have rights
to the name, but mine is better than yours"), then it is not a dispute
the UDRP is designed to deal with, and belongs in the courts or
somewhere else.

But Mark is right that the UDRP is used in a different situation.
If you want to think in terms of gTLDs (notwithstanding that the
.au environment is very different to gTLDs), then a better analogy
to think about would be land rush / sunrise periods for new gTLDs.
