Hi Mario, Agreed. REPP looks like a new protocol that is more like the writing counterpart of RDAP in terms of using HTTP methods for (most of) the EPP semantics. In contrast, EoH and EoQ nicely fit in as the EPP transport extensions. But, as Pawel said, it would be good to get REPP off the ground, irrespective of XML and/or JSON representations. It would help to settle whether REPP gets done within regext (leveraging EPP expertise), or in a new WG.

It provides neither just a switch of transport (like EoH and EoQ) nor an extension to EPP comands and responses. Instead, it presents a full revision of EPP that maps some EPP features onto HTTP features. Moreover, the current proposal is incompatible with some existing or future documents including extensions to EPP query commands (see Jody's question at last meeting about REPP compatibility with the Fee Extension). On the contrary, in the spirit of achieving a full compliance with RFC5730, .it is going to update its EPP implementation that has been working since 2009. With regard to a possible RegExt rechartering, I also don't think we need it. RFC5730 already allows for implementing EPP over multiple transports. But it does even more, it makes some examples of possible alternatives to TCP. Therefore, leaving aside for the moment the debate about considering a new transport as an extension or not, it would be paradoxical if the protocol itself admitted other transports than TCP but it wouldn't be allowed to standardize them just like it has been done for TCP :-( Best, Mario Il 22/03/2024 01:12, Jasdip Singh ha scritto: Hi. Curious if the newly proposed “RESTful EPP” is considered a new protocol that is different from EPP, or is it an “extension” of EPP? (AFAICT, the former seems outside the current regext charter.)

RFC 5730 defines the extension points for EPP and includes support for extending the transports based on Section 2.1 “Transport Mapping Considerations”. I don’t believe that there is a need to revise the REGEXT charter to support the additional of new EPP transports. [SAH] Agreed. New transport mappings are just another type of extension as long as they preserve the data model described in RFC 5730.
