If I remember correctly some of my discussion with OpenSRS they plan to
support this somehow in the future. I don't know when that will be as there
are other things that have priority over supporting new methods, like
getting the existing ones to work and for them to work well.
Personally I would rather see this as another client end script rather than
something that OpenSRS does themselves. You could use most of the reg_system
script to get the job done, or you could in fact use that script and just
add a command line switch that passes the email to the script for processing
to utilize all the existing work easily.
I have mixed personal thoughts on the issue of supporting email domain
registrations. Since it requires a bit more thought and understanding in
theory than a well designed web interface would on the part of the client
who is registering a domain. Also what would email registration buy you over
a domain registration? The only advantage I see would be for countries that
charge by the minute to connect to the internet. Which at that point perhaps
a stand alone application would be better suited and friendlier than a email
form. I know the email form is easier to support right away but what does it
really buy you to support an email form for registration?
