The fact is our process is a little short on RSPs losing domains.
Currently when a domain is transfered away from OpenSRS, yes, the RSP is
not notified. We are working on rectifying that situation.
With that being said, we CAN interject during a manual process. The
'losing' RSP could be owed funds, have a soured relationship with the
registrant and WANTS the end user to leave, etc... Since we definitely
can do something to protect all parties involved with a business process,
we do so.
Transfers away from our system and the subsequent notification of the
'losing' RSP is an issue we're well aware of and are working for a
definitive solution for. More details will likely come from those more
authoritative in the absolute direction of this platform *cough - Scott -
cough* - but this is the general tone for now.
