The rule against "editing" seems to prohibit resellers from locking a domain name for nonpayment (e.g., chargeback or bounced check) by changing the password, pointing the nameservers to a non-payment page, and locking it against transfers. You said earlier that doing so is the right way to handle it (leaving it in the registrant's name but denying access to the service), so I'd like to see that stated as acceptable under the policy. Unless you're only talking about editing the ownership (and not speaking to the issue of editing nameservers/password/lock status), in which case maybe you can just clarify that. ------------------------------------ Robert L Mathews, Tiger Technologies
