COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi,
Thank you for this document. I have two minor comments:
2.1.2. Representing Subsetting Links
"value": "https://example.com/rdap/domains?name=*nr.com
&fieldSet=afieldset",
Should "afieldset" be "anotherfieldset"?
[ML] In web linking (RFC8288), the "value" field contains the context
URI and the "target" field contains the target URI in a given relation
with the context URI.
In Figure 2, the context URI is the current view of the results provided
according to the current field set (i.e. "afieldset") while the target
URI is an alternative view provided according another field set (i.e.
"anotherieldset")
5. Negative Answers
Each request including an empty or unsupported "fieldSet" value MUST
produce an HTTP 400 (Bad Request) response code. Optionally, the
response MAY include additional information regarding the negative
answer in the HTTP entity body.
Given the solution suggests that subsetting metadata may be included in
positive responses, it might be helpful to also include similar metadata in
negative responses. I.e. rather than just stating that a fieldSet is invalid,
perhaps there should be a recommendation that the response include the list of
possible valid values that fieldSet may take?
[ML] I think this pertains to the server policy. RDAP (RFC7483) allows
producers to provide consumers with additional information in error
responses through "notices" and "notices" can include "links".
Definitively, I would keep the fully compliance with the error response
structure defined in RFC7483.
Looking forward to your reply to my comments.
Best,
Mario
Regards,
Rob
