[registrars] New transfer policy concerns

[Jean-Michel Becar]

Hi Marcus,

Yep I fully agree with you and I share the same worries.
But this show us a bigger problem than it seems...for me we just lack of 
communication back and forth between registries and registrars.
Why not to put in place an official liaison person between registries 
and registrars and that person would report on a regular basis to the 
constituencies.
now we have some projects ongoing with the registries but we don't have 
that much follow up:
- EPP 1.0 migration
- new Transfer policy
.....
just my 2 cents contribution.
Jean-Michel
