I'm a little interested in the "that user" portion of this response Charles. Having been in this business a long time I've run into real life situations of the admin contact embezzling money from the company and dropping off the face of the earth (rumoured to be Australia but that's almost redundant :), the admin contact dying, the admin contact being incarcerated with no computer priveleges and the admin contact injured to the point of incapacitation. I'm not sure what is imposed upon a registrar by ICANN rules but hopefully some of this stuff would be defined by your policies as a registrar and not dictated from on high.
Hopefully there's a fallback position for "officers of the company" etc. listed as registrant to facilitate such things in the very unlikely event there is absolutely no contact possible with the listed admin contact. There are tons of domains at NSI that just get renewed every year with them because there is no means to transfer them away (the admin contact is listed as owner and all 3 contacts) and the company just pays the renewal to keep the domain up. So, in short, there's no incentive for OpenSRS to provide alternative means to transfer domains out of their control but I wondered if they do have a means for this. (Just wondered if we're a little more open to such things than Verisign). If it can only be managed by a court order is it a Canadian court that needs to be used or what? Thanks Charles.
