Andy,

I'll pull my prior feedback and recommendations to help with the updates make 
draft-ietf-regext-rdap-versioning work with draft-ietf-regext-rdap-x-media-type 
compatible.  I believe we can really streamline the two drafts by working 
together to merge them.  Expanding the meta-data in the versioning extension 
help response sounds interesting.  Provide some proposals and let's see what 
makes sense. 

Thanks,

-- 

JG

Sorry. I think I missed that. Yes, we need to be more specific about 
that the version identification information, and I agree with you that 
it should not change behavior.


I also see that we mistakenly say the version information is "prepended" 
in Section 3.1.5. That needs to be corrected.

With regard to the versioning draft, could we explore expanding the 
scope of the metadata to include other server information, such as 
server software version, server identification (similar to NSID), and 
other information that can be used for debugging purposes? For those of 
us who do troubleshooting of RDAP services, this would be very helpful.
