I guess it makes sense from NSI's point of view, >cutting down on the number of 'lost' password or PGP key calls. <rant> And here we are in the UK with a basically pretty smooth system using pgp that lets us register/alter domains with seconds being the timeframe and mistakes a major rarity. Plenty of times that by the time the mail program has refreshed its inbox listing, the reply saying "done" is already back from Nominet. Sure - it could be lots better still and many good suggestions seem to take an age to happen. Sure - it couldn't cope with internic's load. But the thing works and shows there's no real excuse for internic to mess up so often so badly for so long. </rant>
