Active to me means a phase where the start date is in the past and the end date 
is in the future.  

This interpretation would cause an issue when a check is performed if a 
registry was in a quiet period between phases, where no phase is active.  If a 
check command was performed during this time without a phase/subphase, what 
should be returned?

Options:

1.  Return an error - no phase/subphase specified.
2.  Return the fee for GA phase.
3.  Return the fee for the next phase in the future.
4.  Return the fee for all future phases.

Thoughts? 

Thanks,
Jody Kolker

Good point.

On that topic, in Tuesday's call we briefly touched the question of what 
constitutes an "active" phase in the context of the fee extension.
In my understanding, a phase is regarded as "active" if it is infinite (no end 
date) or if its end date is in the future, regardless of its start date. This 
means that even phases starting in the future are deemed "active".
I'm not sure whether there was consensus about this interpretation in the group.
