--My litmus test for this move was the answer to the question "is the ROID
--concept common to all objects, or is it required of specific objects".  As
--discussed on this list, it's common to all objects, so I though it should
be
--in the base protocol instead of in the object mappings.  That's why it was
--moved.



It is common to all objects, but not to all responses. For example doesn't
apply to a <check> response. 
And logically, <roid> is part of <resData>, as ---

" An OPTIONAL <resData> (response data) element that contains child
  elements specific to the command and associated object."

Well I like to hear how the people working on implementing EPP feel about
this, as this
migration of <roid> in to base protocol changes the model, as XML generation
is not straight  
forward anymore.
