Which, FWIW, isn't the same way that ICANN sees it. We have a contract 
with them that says registrants are guaranteed basic things. If they 
ask, we have to perform. It would be nice to see this changed, but I 
suspect that it would be next to impossible. The big 
business/intellectual property/telco community is intent on decreasing 
the rights of resellers, not increasing them. Of course they don't have 
a clue that its the "resellers" that built this business, not the big 
names like Network Solutions, etc.
