RE: Stolen Domains

Purely out of curiosity, was this domain registered via OpenSRS, or was it
registered at NSI and stolen there? If it was an OpenSRS name, how was it
possible for a third-party to steal it, given the requirement of a
username/password to manage it?

My interest here is purely hypothetical, so we can take appropriate security
measures -- one of the selling points we make to customers is that, by using
OpenSRS, we give them a secure way to manage their domains and protect their
intellectual property, versus the "leaks like a sieve" security that NSI
has.
