I know you are probably tired of me saying this.....
But again, this is something you can do yourself. I've actually coded
something like this before, I know it can easily be done on a server
with either qmail or exim installed, and with a little more tweaking
you can do it with a sendmail system as well.
But what might be easier for your purpose, Kai, is to use a web based
system to submit the order, have all the data on the screen, and then
have a pull down box to select the registrar you want to submit it to,
and based on that it can send an email to IWWN, or a register command
to OpenSRS, etc.
Honestly, I think OpenSRS should work on the API and RWI systems,
rather than new methods, though. There are plenty of enhancements to
the API that need/can be done. I'd list some of them, but OpenSRS
staff have indicated in this thread that they are working on nearly
all the ones I'd put in my top 5 list, including one of the RWI
enhancements that was just announced :)
(Thanks for that one guys! Online payment option is something I
really was looking forward to, even though I fully understood why you
were doing it with signed faxes.)
