This sounds fine, but I wouldn't necessarily characterize a situation where
"the domain isn't renewed by day 0" as a case of "the reseller ... not
supporting their customer".
When the billing contact is notified by OpenSRS on day 0, who will they be
asked to contact? The RSP? And if the RSP is no longer in business, who
accepts payment for the renewal? Does OpenSRS then enter the retail
business, in competition with its RSP's? Does DomainDirect get the
customer? Will the customers of defunct RSP's be divided among the other
RSP's?
I know these are hard questions, but the time is coming...
