That's bizarre.  Is there an example anywhere else in the world of a 
domain that is cyclically disabled like this?

Were the negotiations with Ausregistry, auDA or someone else?

I'm with John. A domain which is inactive 6 months of the year is useless. 
Either some other solution to the problem needs to be found or the domain 
should be dropped.
