Comments on draft-kong-epp-cdn-mapping-00.txt

I am not a Chinese domain name expert, so please excuse any ignorance I expose with these comments.

Section 5.1.1: I'd recommend including an example <check> response.

Section 5.1.2 and 5.1.3: All of the extension elements are described as optional in the text and the schema,
which implies that they can all be omitted. That doesn't seem right - shouldn't at least one of the elements
be included?

These sections don't describe any differences in the response depending on the domain submitted in the
command. What happens if the query is for an OCDN?  For an SCDN?  For a TCDN?  For a VCDN?  Does it matter?  The
example responses contain a lot of information, but without knowing what was queried I don't know how to
interpret the examples.

Section 5.2.1: Why are the <cdn:VCDNList> and <cdn:VCDN> elements OPTIONAL? If they're not present,
there's no reason to extend the <create> command at all, right?  Shouldn't one of them be present?

Section 5.2.2: I really think this section needs more text to explain what happens when a request is made to
delete an OCDN, SCDN, TCDN, and VCDNs. Is the list of domains returned in the response a list of domains that
are being deleted as a result of deleting an OCDN? If so, that should be clearly explained.

Section 5.2.3 and 5.2.4: Similar comment with OPTIONAL elements and processing of the different forms.

In a private email exchange with Ning Kong we discussed the possibility of this draft (and others like it)
being revised to describe a more general approach to IDN variants.  I would support that effort.

Section 4: it would be really helpful to include examples of the additional element(s) described in
sections 4 and 4.1.

Section 5.2: Please change 'A "type" attribute is used to identify a bundle of CDNs' to 'A REQUIRED "type"
attribute is used to identify a bundle of CDNs'

Sorry, I haven't had time to explore the meaty parts of the document.

+1
I've also expressed the same interest to Ning in a private exchange, and will gladly contribute to the efforts.

Hi Scott,

Thanks for your comments!

OK. I'd like to add an example in the next version or maybe in the new draft
for IDN in future.

Yep, you're right. That's our mistake.

In this draft, we take OCDN, SCDN, TCDN and all VCDNs as one bundle. And
each CDN from the same bundle might have the same attributes (based on our
policy). That's to say, whether or not the query if for an OCDN, SCDN, TCDN,
or VCDN, the response should be same except the <domain:name> tag.

You're right. We made a similar mistake like Section 5.1.2 and 5.1.3. Thanks
for your corrections.

We indeed should make more explanations in this draft. In this draft, we
take OCDN, SCDN, TCDN and all VCDNs as one bundle, as I said above, we
extend the <delete> Command to delete all CDNs of the same bundle. If a
client only wants to delete one or some VCDNs, we suggest the client uses
<update> Command (<cdn:rem> element) which is also extended by us.

Our similar mistakes.

I realize that this draft which only focuses on CDNs is limited, and a more
general approach for IDNs would be more helpful. I'd like to do this work
later. Thanks a lot for your support!

Cheers,
Ning

Extensions in regards to NTLDs

Hi all,

It's been a few years since I've posted to this list and I wonder how many
of us are still subscribed to it. Hopefully enough to make this question
meaningful.

If you are tracking the new GTLD process closely you will have noticed a
requirement in the draft Registry Agreement  to format any EPP extensions in
I-D format.

<If Registry Operator requires the use of functionality outside the base EPP
RFCs, Registry
Operator must document EPP extensions in Internet-Draft format following the
guidelines described in
RFC 3735. Registry Operator will provide and update the relevant
documentation of all the EPP Objects
and Extensions supported to ICANN prior to deployment.>

It occurs to me that once Operators have gone to the trouble of doing this,
numerous extensions may be submitted to the IETF for possibly the standards
track but maybe even more commonly as informational.

Here's my concern, that we will see numerous extensions with heavily
overlapping purposes to solve the common problems of running and launching a
TLD registry.  It seems to me that it would be great to have a group of
volunteers trying to rally disparate efforts to solve similar registry
problems and create standardized extensions where feasible.  I know we've
talked about this sort of idea before around EPP extensions, but given the
impending expansion of the TLD space I thought it was worth raising again.

Thoughts? Comments?

Best Regards,

Michael Young

Re: Extensions in regards to NTLDs

Hi Michael,

I'm envisioning at least two:

1) Launch Phase extension (currently a draft from Wil Tan),

2) IDN - for collecting the "language tag" as required by
   ICANN's IDN implementation guidelines.

I've written a draft for #2, which I could share/submit 
if you guys find it useful.

Francisco,
