What he means is that there are objects in the database: handle objects
and domain objects, they are all independant from each other. A domain
object is usually associated with 1 - 3 handle objects. If you update
ONE handle you have "virtually" updated ALL associated domains. This is
the way NSI has always been handling this (ajd still doing so) and the
same way all European registries handle this. It makes managing domain
data much easier and possibly reduces the database size a lot. It's the
only good thing with NSI.
And I was quite surprised when I saw that OpenSRS is doing it quite
differently ... So, when you say:

I'm even more surprised because you are using a *totally* different
system.
