I do not agree with "the default period whould be 1 year".
The default number of years should not be part of the protocol, since it is a
policy item. Some registries may wish, specially at launch time, to
use 2 years or 5 years as default period.
So, please do not hardcode any value in the protocol, and for example
use the same phrasing as the one used in RFC5731 :
An OPTIONAL <domain:period> element that contains the initial
registration period of the domain object. A server MAY define a
default initial registration period if not specified by the
client.
