Looking at the new interface I have the following questions/suggestions:
1. I would like to have pre-loaded tech and bill contacts. (sunrise)
2. I would like to have nameservers pre-loaded in Landrush (like it is in
Sunrise).
3. Related, I can now load a profile for Sunrise (which is almost over) while
I can't for Landrush (which will carry a much bigger domain load). Are you
planning in changing this? You could simply use the same form like for Sunrise
but display all the necessary contact fields (empty if not possible to fill
them) instead of the Contact ID.
4. So, now we need 1 username and 2 passwords for registering a domain? And
some more passwords for the contacts? Can't we have it even more complicated?
How is this going to work when it comes to actually managing domains? We then
need FOUR words (domain, username, 2 passwords) to get to a single domain and
won't even be able to change contact data because these are protected by their
own passwords. Don't you fear that many users will simply loose that
information? I understand that you probably did not have any other way to
interface with Afilias but I feel lots of trouble ahead for us because of this
over-protection for any single domain.
5. I would like to pre-configure "save" instead of "Register now" for all
domain reg forms.
5. I would like to pre-configure "Renew automatically" for all domain reg
forms. It's so easy to overlook this and now we have some domains registered
without this and most as auto-renew. I hope this doesn't create any problems
when renewal time comes, all other registries we do direct business with just
auto-renew if you don't cancel two or four weeks before expiration and this is
fine.
