last-verified-date

[Rick Wesson <wessorh@ar.com>]

One of the items on the agenda for tuesday is a proposal for an element of
contacts objects. I'd like to get some discussion going on this so we can
stay in the 10 minutes allocated to the topic in our session.

2.9 Last Verified Date

The date the contact had the opportunity to affirm that the information
associated with the contact is correct. Registries MAY set policy on how
checking is preformed and what if any procedure a registrar MUST apply to
ensure correct Registrant data.


The concept is to add some quality assurance mechanism to the registrant
data and to make available for the publishing of the data in WHOIS or a
CRISP protocol so that end-users can have an indicator as to the last date
the information was verified.

I appreciate any thoughts the group has on this proposal.

thanks,
