The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA): Compel ROTLD (.RO) to introduce a management system for domain owners

The Issue

ROTLD is responsible for the .RO domains registration process and although it charges the unique fee for each domain (lifetime fee), it still lacks a user based management system, where users can manage their domains from one central dashboard, just as any other serious (or average) Registrar does.
We hereby ask IANA to enforce the introduction of a central management system for domains (owner of multiple domains should be able to manage all their assets) or allow us, Romanians, to register .RO domains with other registrars as well.

Responded
Dear Mr. Vesa, As noted in my previous response, ICANN/IANA simply does not have the power to require any particular registration procedures or policies in country code top-level domains (nor would most users want a central authority based outside the country to have such power). You need to direct this petition to the appropriate party or parties within Romania. In the meantime, I'd appreciate it if you could deactivate this petition, since we literally can't act on it. Furthermore, if we start to receive a large volume of mail through this petition, we'll have to block messages from change.org, and could end up missing other petitions in the future. If you have any questions about this or any other issue, you (or any petitioner) can contact IANA directly at iana@iana.org. Thanks, Amanda Baber IANA Request Specialist ICANN
