An address would remain in the books as soon as it's paid. No fee is required anymore if it's back online. +In case of stats.i2p, money should go to I2P's budget. + +It will not affect people who runs their services. +It will let I2P to clean up that huge addressbook from abandoned entries. +It will be effective mechanism against squatters. They will have to be online or pay. +Even they use some parking page they will need to run an I2P router, that helps the network implicitly. + + +Motivation +========== + +TBD + + +Design +====== + +TBD + + +Specification +============= + +TBD + + +Migration +========= + +TBD + + + +See Also +======== + +Proposal 129
