transfer rules for .pro.ec

The registrant email must approve the request. Typical time is 5 to 10 days. Eligibility rules also apply to the new owner.
A .pro.ec name goes through these stages: Active for the paid term, then Expired with a grace period of about 30 days, then Pending delete, then released.
The .pro.ec registry does not offer DNSSEC signing at this time, so DS records cannot be added.
