New ICANN registrant change process

As a customer of OpenSRS they sent us a notice about the change. The 
notice, and this page you linked, speak to their customer communication 
about policy changes.

To be honest, I just breezed the email message and noted that it seemed 
like a positive change (without knowing the reasons that prompted the 
change). We rarely update registrant information and rarely transfer 
domains. We also know our customers. I expect this will have zero impact 
on our day to day operations other than potentially preventing some 
hijackings (we have had some customers experience hijackings in the days 
when all it took was a fax on letterhead to NetSol to get your domain 
info changed).
