Actually, they may well be the same person -- when I replied to this I was for some reason thinking "transfer" as in "transfer of ownership", not "transfer of registrar". Most often it probably WILL be the same person. >Yep, but how do I explain this to user B? I mean he gets confused, >because a "transfer order" looks exactly like a "register order"! What do you mean here? Granted the RSP notifications for transfer and new registration are virtually identical; is that what you're talking about? (what has that to do with the end-user?) >user B *thinks* that if he HAS TO provide his contact data, then these >data WILL BE used after the domain is transfered. (Why would he need to >provide those data otherwise?? I also think this _sounds_ a logical >question.) You mean the "please provide your name and daytime work phone number" that user A provides? During a transfer, the old user (B) doesn't have to do anything except click a link, if I am not mistaken...? >But no, the "old" data is (correctly) retained. So what user >B experiences is that "alien" contact details show up right in his profile. Oh, you are talking about a case where the domain is an OpenSRS one both before and after the transfer? Pardon me, feel free to ignore all of this; I have a growing feeling that I've fully misunderstood the issue at hand. :) -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
