Which is rather silly, since their clients should be made aware that the
providers HAVE TO go through a third party, and although NetSol has been
very good about getting new registrations done *very* promptly, there is
no guarantee that the registrations will be complete the same day (nor,
imho, should there be; if I was running the registry I wouldn't guarantee
that).
