There is an RFC for RRP: 3632, but I believe it may not be the most updated version due to some additional features that VeriSign has added. However, I would let Scott/Pat speak to it more definitively. > Do all of the registries use RRP? If not, what do they use? And do they > have language tags? EPP (Extensible Provisioning Protocol) is the ICANN preferred protocol going forward I would say, but again, I would really defer to Tina for more authoritative position. There was an IDN-over-EPP BOF held earlier in the last IETF and there were some presentations done during the Capetown ICANN in Dec 2004. Currently we are trying to setup a mailinglist to further discuss the matter in fact, and the matter has been initiated and is with the Apps area director Ted Hardie at the moment. Personally, I think this is definitely an item that we should work on and provide a standardized framework for. In fact during the ICANN meetings, the presentations at ccNSO and at the Registrar Constituency yielded good results and interest. The ccNSO also reported support for efforts to standardize the EPP extension approach for IDN. Edmon
