[wellylug] Fwd: Your Domain Name is due to expire in 3 days

[Donald Gordon]

I've had this problem with iSERVE before, with the domain name for
Interface, the VUW computer club (which used to be in my name).  Solution
was to transfer it back to discountdomains, who don't seem to care.

IIRC iSERVE's line is that really all registrars should be doing those sorts
of checks.  Unfortunately their pedantry extended to requiring the new
owner's name to be a legal entity of some sort -- which meant they wanted
the domain name to be in the VUW students' association's name, as Interface
isn't a separate legal entity.  Doing this was going to be such a PITA that
I gave up on iSERVE completely.  This means that unless Wellylug has become
an incorporated society while I wasn't looking, iSERVE wouldn't allow you to
register the domain in its name.

In conclusion, gah.

Also it might just be iserve that does this annoying behaviour to make
changing domain ownership hard.

Do all registers require filing paperwork and a fee to change domain
name ownership, or is there one out there that's less annoying?
