I kind of disagree but it is a minor point and I believe that the context provides enough disambiguitation. There is in general possible confusion as there is overlap between the domain name business and the digital certificate issuance business at least for two reasons: many certificates are DV so they directly depend on domain names and multiple domain name registries and registrars are also Certificate Authorities. However I really do not see also what we gain by the acronym we could as well put Customer Service Representative or Support Agent or Customer Care or whatever, in full, instead of an acronym there, so that the example is complete. > Section 2.4 > > I don't know if it's worth saying anything that would remind recipients of > their (non-?)obligation to accept time values that correspond to leap > seconds, but IIRC we've seen cases in the past of software that chokes > when > presented with leap-second timestamps. > > JG - This is standard boilerplate text in the EPP RFCs (RFC 5731 - > 5733) that include timestamps, and I'm not aware of any EPP software > issues associated with leap-second timestamps that warrants a reminder > in this EPP draft. I agree with James, for better or worse, no other EPP documents go into such territories as leap-second and this specification is no more "time" oriented than the others so it makes no specific sense to start here talking about leap seconds. -- Patrick Mevzek _______________________________________________ regext mailing list regext@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/regext
