I support this proposal and agree with James that in the near future we
should address versioning in RDAP.

As everyone knows there has been quite some discussion on the mailing list
regarding how to implement rdapConformance. This was a significant topic of
discussion at the REGEXT meeting during IETF114.
Three options were proposed on the mailing list and unfortunately the Chairs do
not believe there was a consensus on the mailing list as to how to proceed.
So, the Chairs developed a proposal for how to proceed and presented that at
the IETF114 meeting.
Since all decision must be made on the mailing list, the purpose of this
message is to state the proposal and ask for support or objections, similar to
how we handle WGLC for documents. Please indicate your support by replying to
this message with a “+1” or explaining any objection you have.
This CONSENSUS CALL will close in two weeks on 15 August 2022 at close of
business everywhere.
This proposal had consensus during the IETF114 meeting and is summarized as
follows.
1. Given that both RFC7480 and RFC9083 are Internet Standards, the bar for
changes is quite high.
2. There is a generally accepted consensus for how rdapConformance is to be
used and it is widely deployed today.
3. Although any one of the three options could be a reasonable choice, none of
them has a broad consensus sufficient to justify changing the Standard.
4. The proposal has two parts as follows:
A. Accept that the RDAP protocol and RDAP Extensions Registry do not directly
support versioning of extensions and that both support unique extension
identifiers.
B. Submit Errata to the appropriate RFC in STD95 to harmonize the example usage
of the extension identifiers “lunarNIC” and “lunarNIC_level_0” to improve
clarity on the uniqueness of identifiers.
For additional details working group members are referred to the slides used by
the Chairs during the discussion and recording of the meeting:
