The whole channel from end-user (registrant) to registry cannot usefully be specified in any general way because there is no consistent way of interacting with a registrar (in the name of open competition) and no consistent registry-registrar-registrant structure across all TLDs (for reasons that surely would require more than one parenthetical phrase to describe adequately).

The component that concerns communication between a registry and a registrar does have one solution that has been standardised in the IETF, however, which is being implemented at some TLDs, I hear.
