Hi Adam,

We're currently working on a system that does this kind of thing, and offer it
to clients on a best efforts basis. We also use this to pick names that clients
have ordered transfers for but have been unable to get the confirmation done or
to get the current registrar to let go of the name.

If you'd like to use this, please let me know off list.

Doug.
