I learn something new everyday in this business ... it appears registrar transfer-out IS possible even with Registrar-Lock under the new EPP scheme.
According to RegistrationTek, this domain would transfer-out ok, since EPP status is authoritative (EPP status of "clientTransferProhibited" would need to be indicated to prevent transfer-out) ...
Well anyways, the transfer was submitted yesterday, and the registry accepted it and is now in the 5 day pending approval period.
So in a nutshell, it appears transfer-outs on a "locked" domain is possible unless the EPP status of "clientTransferProhibited" is also indicated.
Domain Name: CYBERLOCATIONS.COM
Registrar: REGISTRATION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Whois Server: whois.registrationtek.com
Referral URL: http://www.registrationtek.com
Name Server: NS2.DOMAGON.NET
Name Server: NS1.DOMAGON.NET
Status: REGISTRAR-LOCK
EPP Status: clientDeleteProhibited
Updated Date: 03-Nov-2006
Creation Date: 13-May-2003
Expiration Date: 13-May-2007
On a related note, I tried transferring this domain into BulkRegister, and they responded with a machine written boilerplate reply; they've done likewise in the past for other issues - outsourcing support saves money in the shortrun, but longterm is often more costly ... definitely looking at transferring out my 1170+ domains from there to other registrars shortly unless BulkRegister / Enom dramatically change their support procedures.
