Re: [ietf-provreg] RFC 3730 (EPP)

OK. Thank you very much. Just to clarify something on my end, in the
particular case of attempting to remove a status from a domain where
the domain does exists but the status does not exist for that domain,
would:

   2303    "Object does not exist"
   This response code MUST be returned when a server receives a command
   to query or transform an object that does not exist in the repository.

ever be a proper response code? My assumption is that this response
code would only be valid if the domain itself did not exist.
