Re: [regext] RDAP lookup queries for reserved or unassignable domains

2016-12-07 Thread John R Levine
There are lots of reasons an RDAP server might not have info about a domain, e.g., you ask it about a TLD it doesn't handle, and there's no reason to assume that an RDAP server would know anything about an unknown domain's availability. I would think anybody doing reselling would have the availa

Already replied but see This answer just confirms my main point. Whether to put DNAMEs in the root is primarily a policy question. Even if you thought it was a good idea (which I still don't, see next message) there is

OK, I see your point. Documented in an appendix in draft-bortzmeyer-dname-root-05.txt as a possible alternative. Thanks. Now my question is that since we have a workable approach that does not require a new EPP extension, and since (in my opinion at least) DNAMEs as 2LDs are an actively bad i

If a registrant is living in the EU, or a EU citizen, they would be covered by GDPR protections, so its impact is quite significant. As you know, ICANN and the industry is seeking to find one compliance model. I do not see why we would deviate from that. I pretty sure nothing has changed sinc
