We really needed a domain deleted for legal reasons. We faxed a request to opensrs.
And it wasn't deleted.
I'd be happy to pay any associated fees.... (it's still siting out there).
Also, your RSP is your customer - not the end-user.
If an RSP wants a domain deleted - they should be able to, after all *they paid for
it*.

Subject: Re: (IMHO) important feature: domain deletion
The only difficulty with doing deletions is we are CHARGED a transaction
fee if the deletion occurs after 5 days. Also, we'll have to build a
system whereby we verify for SURE that the customer no longer wants the
domain, or there's proof of non-payment (etc). It's a tricky business
giving resellers the ability to delete domains - there's no undo button.
If you delete a domain AND you're not supposed to, OpenSRS is ultimately
responsible (and ICANN mandates are HARSH at times).
