<leave tomorrow morning...>

There was an announcement sent about this last night (apologies)... we
found the bug last minute.  The fix is here:

Description of Bug:

The RCL prevents registrants using reg_system.info.cgi from basing a new
prereg on an existing prereg.  The current code only allows for basing
new prereg's on existing *active* .info domains.

Fix:

To return the functionality to the previous behaviour, all clients will
have to change their code.  In reg_system.info.cgi around lines 374 and
583, the specification of the domain name in the "get domain" XCP call
needs to have '|prereg' added to the line.  Such as this:

        my $xcp_request = {
             action => "get",
             object => "domain",
             attributes => {
                 type => "all_info",
                 #domain   => $in{reg_domain},  (old line)
                 domain   => $in{reg_domain}.'|prereg',   # new line
                 reg_username => $in{reg_username},
                 reg_password => $in{reg_password},
             }
        };

If you wish to give your registrant the option of basing a new
prereg on an existing prereg or an existing active domain, then the
addition of '|prereg' should be dynamic and not hard-coded as it is
here.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
