Subject:
<postalInfo> element in contact management
Source :draft-ietf-provreg-epp-contact-04.txt Quote from the <contact:info> command page 11 ... One or two <contact:postalInfo> elements that contain postal address information. Two elements are provided so that address information can be provided in both internationalized and localized forms. If an internationalized form is provided, it MUST be listed first and element content MUST be represented in a subset of UTF-8 that can be represented in the 7-bit US-ASCII character set. If a localized form is provided, element content MAY be represented in unrestricted UTF-8. ... If two <contact:postalInfo> elements are provided the above paragraph makes it clear which one is the internationalized form and which is the localized form. However, if only one <contact:postalInfo> element is supplied, is it understood to be internationalized or localized? A similar comment applies to <contact:create>. Our registry database has the ability to store two postalInfo entries, and distinguishes between internationalized and localized addresses. If <contact:create> supplies only one <contact:postalInfo>, where do we put the data? Thanks for any help you can give; prompt replies to earlier questions (even idiot ones) has been much appreciated. Rob Burbidge
