Good Afternoon,

I took an action item out of the Interim REGEXT Meeting held 03NOV2019 in 
regards to the Registry-Registrar Reporting discussion.

We discussed, for almost two hours, several proposals around standardizing 
Registry-Registrar Reports. Roughly there were three proposals:

*       Column/Report Registry - Create two (2) first come first serve 
registries at IANA to contain the industry agreed standardized 1) column names 
and definitions and 2) Report Name and column mappings. This was a new proposal 
presented at the Interim Meeting.

*       Best Practice - Define each standard report as an RFC. Over the past 
year or so there have been several drafts created to document proposed 
reporting standards between Registries and Registrars.  
(draft-mcpherson-sattler-report-structure<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mcpherson-sattler-report-structure/>,
 
draft-mcpherson-sattler-reporting-repository<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mcpherson-sattler-reporting-repository/>,
 
draft-mcpherson-sattler-transaction-report<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mcpherson-sattler-transaction-report/>,
 
draft-sattler-premium-domain-fee-report<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sattler-premium-domain-fee-report/>,
 
draft-sattler-domain-inventory-report<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sattler-domain-inventory-report/>,
 
draft-sattler-domain-drop-list-report<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sattler-domain-drop-list-report/>,
 
draft-sattler-unavailable-domain-report<https://datatracker.ietf..org/doc/draft-sattler-unavailable-domain-report/>,
  
draft-sattler-contact-inventory-report<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-sattler-contact-inventory-report/>).

*       Dataset File Format - A proposed format that can be used to define and 
pass bulk data between Registry-Registrar. There was some discussion on 
possible modifications that would possibly allow report definition and delivery 
(draft-gould-regext-dataset<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-gould-regext-dataset/>).

To provide focus and eliminate as much duplicate effort as possible, I would 
propose that the WG proceed with the Column/Report Registry concept; remove 
(from the REGEXT backlog) the internet drafts created under the Best Practice 
concept; and continue with the Dataset File Format for bulk operations but not 
be used/modified for these standard reports.

For discussion details please see the meeting notes (coming soon).


Thanks
Roger
