On a purely semantic level I still find it wrong to have an "after" purge message reflecting data as if the domain still exists. This will need to be handled by registrars as a specific case, since they could, for example, not always update their database based on the "after" messages because in this specific case if they do it like that they will see the domain existing, where it was deleted. So that message will have a specific handling just for it. -- Patrick Mevzek _______________________________________________ regext mailing list regext@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/regext
