Simplification of the .fr owner change

Good news: Afnic, the .fr registry, made their trade process (domain owner change) simpler and more compliant with market standards.

You can initiate a .fr trade via the dd24 web interface as usual. The domain owner is now responsible for obtaining the approval of the outgoing and incoming registrant to carry out the transaction. He receives an e-mail with the respective instructions. The trade is free of charge and the transaction does not change the domain name's expiry date. Along with the successful trade the domain authcode will be updated as well and needs to be provided to the new registrant.

Please note that all changes apply to the other Afnic ccTLDs .re, .yt, .wf, .tf, and .pm as well.
