For example: > <response> | X | X | X | X | X | X > | > OPTIONAL <value> | X | X | X | X | X | X How can I verify that? I don't know what DotRegistrar and Key Systems get from Afilias and Neulevel, but I know what we get, and because of this, I wouldn't put an 'X' here. Your draft (draft-hollenbeck-epp-rfc3730bis-01, the latest I could find) says: Zero or more OPTIONAL <value> elements that identify a client- provided element (including XML tag and value) that caused a server error condition. Well, Afilias and Neulevel put a lot of stuff into the value element, like additional error codes, comments and so on, but nothing that identifies a client-provided element. If, for example, a domain:info command fails because the domain does not exist, I would expect the <value> element to contain "<domain:name>example.com</domain:name>" as the content, but this does not happen at the two registries. This is not a special attack against Afilias and Neulevel in favour of Verisign. As I am not involved in our transition to EPP at Verisign, I simply don't know whether Verisign is any better and eats its own dog food. Howsoever, I would be surprised if you would do anything but to ignore my objections -- as usual.
