Apologies for what is almost a double post... but I think that what we
want can be made more clear...
Auth-codes for transfers are supposed** to be a good thing. They should
suffice as "indisputable proof" that the transfer request has been made by
a valid representitave of the domain owner... consequently, if the API
would allow us to specify the auth-code for an EPP domain during a
transfer, we should be able to skip the opensrs admin contact confirmation
step completely and just go to "submit to registry" ... which could even
tell us if the auth code is wrong... all this happening before we bill the
registrant's credit card .... simple, effective, doable? already exists?
Or did I miss roadblock?
(** unfortunately this isn't the first time that a great technical
solution has been distorted almost beyond recognition, e.g. sign over your
first born child and all your right sige organs and we'll send you the
auth code for your domain.)
