Re: [ietf-provreg] a new core command...?

Ok.

It's not an extension but an entire external service. Thanks for you 
feed-back.

Just a question: Are you using that SOAP service for anything else?

There is anyone else who would like to use (or is actually using, by 
means of extensions or external services) an EPP command for searching 
objects stored in a shared central repository?
