Hi, I am beginning to ask myself if the enforcement of the new transfer policy will take effect on November 12. I will share my experience with verisign and pir as we are responsible for the communication with these registries inside CORE. - Both registries have not published any documentation or software regarding registry changes, e.g. transfer undos - verisign has not confirmed that they will use authinfo codes after epp transition - verisign told us there is no "dead end" date for rrp, meaning some registrars will be on epp and some may stay on rrp (forever?). There is no information how transfers will work between rrp and epp registrars - verisign will stay thin, whois standardization is not around. This means that all existing registrars will have to implement a new whois parser for each new registrar that show up. This can't be it. And these are only the major issues. I wonder how we should solve this before November. Yours, Marcus ----- End of forwarded message from Marcus Faure -----
