[SAH] Yes, we could make a specific recommendation in 6.2.2. What should that 
recommendation be, though? I'm leaning towards a recommendation for community 
action to identify the most appropriate special use domain.

[SAH] We could do that for RDAP, but EPP status values are defined in the 
associated RFCs. They're not registered with IANA.
