An addendum to this.
We are currently in the progress of altering our core order logic, whereby
you will be able to specify a different Registrant, Admin, Billing, and
Technical contact (if you wish) for each specific order. The assumption
that the Admin contact controls the domain is still valid (primarily), but
we have to honour the fact that the Registrant may be quite different from
the Admin contact.
In the interim, you can always alter any of the four contacts after
registration via manage.cgi (or http://manage.opensrs.net/)
