I do not think "none" is too useful in this context and could even cause confusion. Shouldn't every system that is not included in the list automatically be not affected? What would be the consequence of having "none" there? In my opinion this then requires the registry to list each system in every maintenance notification. Otherwise one might wonder what is the difference between, e.g., <maint:name>Whois</maint:name> <maint:host>whois.registry.example</maint:host> <maint:impact>none</maint:impact> and just omitting the Whois entry. I think in e-mails from the registry it can make sense to add something like "DNS is not affected by our maintenance" to put the reading registrar at ease, but in an automated notification I do not see the value. If it's not mentioned, it's not affected.
