BTW, and this is a barely preliminary "btw" A lot of people must be asking for this, or someone's asking very loudly to a lot of people...
The registry (Verisign for CNO) will soon be providing the ability to "sync" expiration dates. There's only a preliminary document on how this service will work and costing and what not This will let you know that one day your client's request(s) for this type of action will be possible. Can't provide timelines/dates - doesn't appear as though VRGS will be providing this until late Q4 anyway, let alone when we can get it in (and work it out accordingly).
