Jamie,
Only Nominet 'Tag Holders' have the ability to talk directly to the Nominet UK Automaton
and sanction a Tag change. Anyone may become a Tag Holder though, see:
http://www.nic.uk/ref/tags.html
Tucows is obviously ( Tag = TUCOWS-CA ), as I am ( Tag = XEOTECH ). But, only
Nominet Members get the discounted domain price. All details may be found on
An IPS Tag relates to the UK domain name registry only.
Regards,
Chris

Subject: Change IPS Tag
When a *.co.uk domain is being transferred to another registrar, the current registrar 'gives up' the domain by changing the IPS tag (in the case of OpenSRS, the tag would be changed to TUCOWS-CA). Do other registrars have the ability to do this for other domains? I.e. could I request NSI to change the IPS tag for a domain and then have OpenSRS take it?
I think the answer is no, probably because I don't even know if domains other than *.co.uk even have an IPS tag. What does IPS stand for anyway? It's Pretty Sweet?
Regards,
Jamie Price
