Hi Roger,

I couldn't attend the last Interim Meeting so I apologise if some comments below could be obsolete:

1) According to section 1.1 of RFC 5731, a server cannot support the host object. So, even if the server implements a policy about IP addresses included in domain:hostAddr elements, it doesn't implement check (or any other) operation on hosts Therefore, a minOccurs="0" attribute should be added to the element maxCheckHost of hostType.

Good point that draft-gould-carney-regext-registry may not properly support defining the policies for a zone that supports hostAddr instead of hostObj in RFC 5731.  We’ll take a closer look at how hostAddr can be supported in draft-gould-carney-regext-registry including the XML schema definition of maxCheckHost.



2) Why should supportedStatus only contain standard status ? The supportedStatusType definition is less strict than the description and this seems good to me because supportedStatusType can match custom status too.

It would be good to understand how custom statuses are supported to effectively define the policy for custom statuses.  Can you provide a description of how custom statuses are supported?  You are correct that the supportedStatusType is not an enumerated type, so therefore any status can be included.


In the same way the rgpStatus of RGP extension is supported. Usually, due to local regulations, custom statuses are applied to domains and affect the set of operations a client can request. I think that the Registry Mapping extension would be very helpful if servers could provide clients with a formal description of the operations clients are allowed to request on a domain according to their statuses, no matter the statuses are standard or custom. IMHO, the only reference of the extension declaring the custom statuses in the registry:svcExtension element would not be enough.
I hope this could clarify my previous statement.


3) The description of expiryPolicy contains the following sentence:

"autoRenew": The domain object will auto-renew at expiry.
                          The client can receive a credit for the auto-renew if the                          domain object is deleted within the auto-renew grace period."

Does it make sense to replace "if the domain object is deleted" with "if the domain object is deleted or transferred" ?

Yes, adding “or transferred” to the description makes sense for the auto-renew grace period.


4) Considering that RFC 5730 defines a response code returned when a server receives an unimplemented command (i.e. 2101) , maybe it's worth to add information about unimplemented operations.

Good point, we can put some thought into how to define this.


5) In my opinion, the schedule format has some limits. Java EE Timer expressions (https://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/tutorial/ejb-basicexamples004.htm) seem to be more flexible especially regarding dayOfMonth values:

1 to 31. For example: dayOfMonth="15".

–7 to –1 (a negative number means the /n/th day or days before the end of the month). For example: dayOfMonth="–3".

Last. For example: dayOfMonth="Last".

[1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, Last] [Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat]. For example: dayOfMonth="2nd Fri".

The schedule format was our first attempt, so we can consider your proposal as well.



6) Finally, I hope that in the future the draft will address the mapping of the possible extensions described in RFC 5730.

I’m unsure what you mean by “mapping of the possible extensions described in RFC 5730”.  Can you describe this a little more?


This answer is strictly related to the previous one of point 2. According to RFC5730 there could be three kinds of extensions.  By the term "extensions", I mean both the custom extensions (applied only to a specific registry) and  new standardized extensions (completing in the future the standardization process). Both could deeply affect the server policy. Just to give you an example,  the Login Security extension is currently under the WG evaluation. If it will complete the standardization track, it will heavily affect clients authentication for those servers that will implement it. Clients should be able to catch which kind of authentication method servers support (i.e only the standard method, only the login security method, both). So I don't think that it would be enough to deal with it by simply putting it in the registry:svcExtension element. As an example of a custom extensions, I know many European ccTLDs requiring additional properties for those contacts that will be referenced as registrants in domain registrations. If a client don't
provide them when creating the registrant, the domain cannot be registered.
Please, don't misunderstand me, I don't want to provide a method to increase the number of custom extensions. For interoperability reasons, it is always be better to have a standardization process for those extensions that could be potentially applied to all the EPP servers. Anyway, custom extensions exist and we should face with.

I have an extra question:
Does it make sense to specify in Registry Mapping the transport protocol supported by the server?



Regards,
Mario

    Good Morning,

    We have been talking about Registry Mapping for over a year now
    and here is the official first draft
    <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-gould-carney-regext-registry/>.

    Please take a read and let the discussions flow! We will be having
    an interim meeting
    <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/agenda-interim-2018-regext-03-regext-01/>
    next Tuesday (June 5^th at 16:00 UTC) and one of the two agenda
    items is a discussion of this idea/draft.

    Thanks

    Roger

    Abstract:

       This document describes an Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP)

       mapping for provisioning registry zones (e.g. top-level
    domains) in a

       Domain Name Registry.  The attributes of a registry zone
    include the

       features and policies of the registry zone.

    Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of
    submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at
    tools.ietf.org.
