This is more or less what I mean.

You could offer a service that will try once or twice a day, to see if a
domain
has been released and register it. This is in fact what interests me right
now, as
the domains I am waiting to be deleted are not likely to be snatched up, I
just
get tired of checking them every day.

You could also offer a service that will try at the time (literally minite)
of release.
I imagine some of OpenSRS resellers have implemented this themselves, but
that external implementation places a much higher load on the OpenSRS system
(assuming they are querying OpenSRS for availability), than would an
internal
implementation would could be offloaded to separate machines.
