Hi Marc,

thank you for this document. I consider it very helpful.

I agree with you that some information included in the RFCs about RDAP need to be clarified to facilitate the implementers' work  and the overall client-server interoperability.

For example, which is the relationship between the rdapConformance values and the registered extenions? I mean, if I registered the extension "itNic",  should I simply insert "itNic" into the rdapConformance array or should I insert "itNic_..." ? In the second case, should the inserted value be compliant with a default format (i.e.  "itNic_level_0" or "itNic_version_0" or "itNic_0") ?

With regard to section 3.3, in my opinion, the context URI should always be set to the current query. In this way, it could be much easier to define the meaning of  each "rel" value. In order to avoid such problems and make the links about sorting, paging and subsetting clearly identifiable by the client, I have wrapped them in reserved elements instead of providing them as notices.

I don't completely agree with you about the content of section 6.1. If we read the definition of  search patterns based on a name in RFC7482, it seems that, even in these cases,  partial matching would not be allowed since the pattern should represent a name in LDH or U-label format. For sure we need to clarify the search patterns definition but I would opt to allow partial matching also when the pattern represents an IP address.

In addition, I think that also the string "IANA Registrar ID" should be considered among the currently used but unregistered values.


Best,

mario
