Hi All,

First off.. thanks for a good API for this system. It took me a while to get
to grips with it all, but I am now well underway.

Now for a few questions...

1) Am I right in think that you can only transfer a domain to another
'profile', and that this can only be done if you know the destination
'profile''s username, password, and one domain name.

2) If the above is correct... Is this not a little insecure for other
'profile' holders, havinng to give out their username and password. (I think
I might be missing somethign here.

3) Is there any way (or will there be a way) to transfer a domain to another
ICANN member? I'm not sure if this is possible at all, or even with this
API.

Thanks for looking at these..

A few suggestions...

While I was learning how to use the OpenSRS API it took me a while to get
all the needed information together. It would have been very helpful to have
a single document that included...

A) All the commands that the API supports, along with...
    1) All the needed input fields, any validation checking, what they were
for, and in what combinations they would be expected.
    2) All the expect output field, what they are, and when they could be
expected.

Some of the above are already included in the current documentation, and
some points are spread across 2 - 3 documents. It would be nice to have
these all in one reference type document.

Once again, thanks to the creators... We hope to do some good deligating on
the back of this!

Best Regards,
John Brownbill.
