The IETF does not deal with registry policy issues.

ICANN, from what I can tell, had this issue (doamin tasting)
on their
agenda as a discussion iten in Lisbon last week, but i am
unaware of
the discussion outcome.

Having said that, if this particular policy issue can be
measured
by ICANN's proclivity with other domain policy issues, I
think we're
talking years here. And that's kind of sobering, from a
policy
perspective.

Some of the biggest "domain tasters"  aren't too
particular about what
they register.. spammer domains or kited domains, it is all
grist to
their mill
