Eric,

Yes, that can be done, with one small change of “anything” to “the object” to 
be consistent with the subject of the modification.  The complete revised text 
is:

If clientUpdateProhibited or serverUpdateProhibited is set, the client will not 
be able to update the object.  For clientUpdateProhibited, the client will 
first need to remove clientUpdateProhibited prior to attempting to update the 
object.  The server can modify the object at any time.

Eric,

No, both statuses only stops the client from doing updates.  The difference is 
that the server can only set and unset the serverUpdateProhibited status.  The 
prohibited statuses don’t apply to the server executing the commands.

Based on this, the revised sentence would read:

If clientUpdateProhibited or serverUpdateProhibited is set, the client will not 
be able to update the object.  For clientUpdateProhibited, the client will 
first need to remove clientUpdateProhibited prior to attempting to update the 
object.


Does that help?

Yes. Could you add a sentence that says that the server can modify anything at 
any time?

In any case, I think we're on the same page. I'll clear my DISCUSS and trust 
you to update.

Thanks,

OK, so I think the key point here is that either "clientUpdateProhibites" or 
"serverUpdateProhibited" will stop both sides from doing updates.

So I think what I would say is somewhere:
Note that if clientUpdateProhibited is set, the client will not be able to 
update the object. It will first need to remove that field prior to attempting 
to update the object.

Would that work?

Benjamin,

The “ok” status is the default status and not classified as a server status, 
since it is not prefixed with “server”.  The sentence “A client MUST NOT alter 
status values set by the server.” means that the client cannot set or remove a 
server status, such as serverUpdateProhibited.  I hope this clarifies what is 
defined in the EPP RFCs (5730-5733) and draft-ietf-regext-org.



Thanks,

    This seems overly zealous to the point of being harmful.  For example, if a

    server sets the status to "ok", a client cannot replace it by

    clientLinkProhibited?
