Pieter,

A reserved domain name may be held in the live domain table and sponsored by an 
internal server account, where the allocation token on a transfer request may 
be used to allocate the domain name to the client.  The allocation token is an 
explicit credential for allocation authorization and it does not replace the 
authInfo value.  

Thanks,

    Hi,
    
    Short question: what's the purpose of an allocation token within a transfer 
command (and what's the difference with authInfo code)? I understand the 
purpose in case of create and I can imagine some use cases for update, but even 
for update, I have my doubts.
    
    I'm sorry if this question has been asked in the past, but Google doesn't 
appear to be my friend today ;-)
