[DNS] Licence Period

[DNS] Licence Period

It's an abuse of the system.  

If someone wants to take the risk and register a name they think will attract
traffic, I have no problem with that.  

Tasting however removes the risk as the domain can be deleted within the
grace period at no cost if it doesn't have the desired level of traffic.
