5890 is already a normative reference, so RDAP implementations SHOULD be following the guidance it provides. I'd rather not repeat that guidance in 7482 because it's already included in a normative reference. This could, however, be captured somewhere in a document that provides implementation guidance like ICANN's gTLD profile. This is, however, more of an issue for RDAP responses, isn't it? The DNS specifications also allow labels in both upper and lower case, so any RDAP server that chokes on a query containing one form or the other is most certainly broken. > 5.

Where do any of the path elements touch on rdapConformance values? I don't see "rdapConformance" anywhere in the text. > 9.2 Nitpick > > Use https:// for > http://secure-web.cisco.com/1nISAjXBpKL_XIglWvOW0Z69bNYuU7P- > Vyn7KAwEKh9j-ac54KiLWzTR-krTSDR34ISI1- > 8aDLHBYBILKyhQ_rg4aBDSDwDNMrP2Pj3n85oemJCDRCXjTJIu_WkYQ7EPA58 > sdEGR_5MYw9HaS4JSHuOKOm4uxA1tN8BZEtnVJCF0XeVbKl8S3D_oaeIfc6zZF > dwIi3UGRWbxscxTIJKU- > tADzhfDXPjZmzLVfUCGr42xabBKvi_Ti1Nd0FGNEgY9nb2NM66SWeQhzdzpsn > 9jP3g/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ics.uci.edu%2F%7Efielding%2Fpubs%2Fdisserta > tion%2Ffielding_dissertation.pdf When I try to open that URL using HTTPS, I'm redirected to an HTTP connection.

I noticed that, too, but it looks like it's there now that I've published -04.
