Re: "private" Element Attribute

I think we're discussing as the authors of -07 and -05, some new external requirement statement, which may or may not be techncally sophistcated. Our drafts, -07 in particular, provide a mechanism for (b), and for those who deploy EPP implementations in ICANN private-law, or public-law, TLDs, that means a mechanism that allows expression of policy consistent with applicable law, (c). > My understanding of the IESG comments is that they were focused on (a). That's their problem. Randy wouldn't be the first menber of the IESG to assert he knows more about the problem domain than I do, but I don't think he will. What (a) implies is that a registrant can create enforceable policies on registries. Now we look to the space created by all values of policy and all values of policied objects. Actually, I can live with the IESG making the "Internet Standard" (or ICANN) protocol hideously baroque. The ccTLD and delegated registries can ignore the damage and route around it. Having consulted to the _other_ IAB on choice and its consequences, and to MicroSquash on the same subject, whether in IE or in MS's CDN, I can say it is as endearing as RSVP and keeping arbitrary amounts of arbitrary state. Element-wise semantics, but not necessarily distinct semantics for each element. I'm thinking. Goodnight. Eric
