Sorry I dont have any links but was on the phone with my Registrar about this as soon as I got the news and he assured me that what I stated above is how this plays out. If you read what your post says it is talking about the CURRENT Registrar of Record not the one that the domain will be transferred to. If you use godaddy for instance and I sell you a domain name, you would log into godaddy and type in the domain name I sold you to be transferred into your account. GODADDY then would send me an email asking if I wanted to confirm the transfer. If I say NO or do not respond then nothing happens...period. If I say YES (this is where the change takes place) then my registrar would send me an email stating that a transfer request was initiated and ask me to confirm again...now if I ignore that one then the transfer will go through as I requested. I can still say no or yes to that one if I want but this is where some registrars were screwing people by either not sending that second request at all or making it entirely too confusing for people to use it which would cause the domain name to stay at the registrar for that much longer.
By the way...my registrar may not know what the heck he is talking about either but from what I know, what I have read and what he said this again is what I get out of it...don't worry about arguing with me about it, this is important and needs to be figured out for 100% sure so the more arguing the better...lol
