there is no requirement to close any 2lds in order to open .au we have suggested that all .com.au are copied into .au for free for a renewal cycle (2 years), owners can then decide during that perdiod if they want to keep both extensions, sell one off or let one lapse. given choice the market will decide for itself which extensions have the greatest value. and importantly this proposal maintains the value for registrants.
