The same applies to deleting the voice or the fax via an > empty element (<contact:voice/> or <contact:fax/>) Sorry to pick up this discussion from three years ago, but I was wondering: has this language ever made it into an "official" IETF publication? It's not in RFC 5733, and there's no successor for RFC 5733 either. Currently, the only way to find this online is via this mailing list's archive. I'm asking because, as a registrar, we're still seeing lots of different contact update implementations in the wild, and even larger registries seem to be struggling with getting this right.
