This version corrects a few outdated references and one error where a boolean true value was represented as a string. With these fixes, I believe the draft is finished and is ready for working group last call. In the past we've thought that it might be prudent to hold off on completing this draft until ICANN processes focused on authenticated access to registration data ran to completion. It's now clear that those ICANN processes aren't focused on using RDAP, so I think it's best if we declare victory and move this document over the finish line.
