Dear colleagues, A question/comment on §5.1.1 of the fee specification: o An OPTIONAL <fee:period> element, which contains the same unit that appeared in the <fee:currency> element of the command. If the value of the preceding <fee:command> element is "restore", this element MUST NOT be included. Otherwise it MUST be included. If no <fee:period> appeared in command (and the command is not "restore") then this element MUST have a value of 1 year.
</quote> Why is 1 year hardcoded there ? Some registries, for some periods and/or some domains, may offer only registrations for some given amount of years, and not necessarily 1. I've already seen registries using 2 years as default and minimum values (hence 2 to 10), and other registries offering some specific values such as only 2, 5 or 10 for example. In short, why hardcoding 1 year here instead of saying that in this case the registries should reply with its default value (the same one that will be used during a domain:create or other commands without a domain:period), which can be any number based on local policies (and may be different depending on the commands, it can be 2 years for create, but 1 for transfers) ? -- Patrick Mevzek _______________________________________________ regext mailing list regext@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/regext
