Hi Thomas,

>>
 Yes, the fee information should be returned for a reserved domain if pricing 
information does exist.  

Not sure what this would mean. If a domain is reserved, that usually means that 
it's not available for registration under *any* circumstances.
Therefore there should never be a pricing information available for such a 
domain.

With the launch of the new gTLDs, we have numerous examples of domains that are 
reserved by the registry, but are available for sale given some circumstances.  
For this reason, we would like all reserved domains to be assigned a fee.


Thanks,

Not sure what this would mean. If a domain is reserved, that usually means that 
it's not available for registration under *any* circumstances.
Therefore there should never be a pricing information available for such a 
domain.

The alternative would be to return the *fictitious* price for the domain should 
it ever *become* available in the future, but that's impossible to assess and 
would not provide useful information to the registrar.


In our current implementation, the fee information returned by a <fee:check> is 
generally identical to the fee information that would be returned if the 
registrar actually tried to execute the given transform command on the given 
domain name, in the given launch phase, with the given period. That includes a 
check for the name's actual availability.
It's essentially a simulation of the given operation on the name.

While I agree that the availability check is already a task that the standard 
<check> command accomplishes, the fee extension provides the opportunity to 
extend its basic functionality. If e.g. a registry releases premium names by 
allowing their registration in specific launch phases, each with specific 
prices, the fee extension provides (at least in version fee-0.15) a way to tell 
the registrar in which of these phases a name is available, and at which price.

Best regards,

Thomas
