Scott, 

Originally, I thought my answers would be dependent on the result of the RST 
2.0 and the Next Round Base Registry Agreement requirement being addressed out 
of the IETF, but in the end my answers are the same.  The driving goal should 
be to allow the registration of implemented EPP extensions for visibility, so 
we should be liberal in what's accepted.  I would like to see a higher 
percentage of the EPP extensions that we found in the EPP Extensibility and 
Extension Analysis registered and I don't want to encourage breaking copyrights 
and forking implemented IETF draft extensions to proprietary.  We should not 
require removal of registered draft extensions based on draft inactive or 
abandoned statuses; otherwise, we the visibility would be lost.  

Should we allow registration of an active Internet-Draft on a provisional basis 
with the registered entity expected to be updated when the draft proceeds to 
RFC status? YES

Should we allow registration of an inactive or abandoned Internet-Draft knowing 
that the draft might not proceed to RFC status? YES

Should we require non-IETF EPP extensions to register their URIs using non-IETF 
namespaces? YES

I'm having a lot of difficulty understanding people's positions on the issues 
associated with registering Internet-Drafts and non-IETF specifications in the 
EPP extension registry. I'm going to ask some basic questions that I'd like 
people to answer to help me understand where we agree and disagree. These 
questions have simple "yes" or "no" answers. As given information, we know that 
RFC 3688 prohibits registration of XML schema and namespace URIs where the 
associated specification isn't an RFC.


Should we allow registration of an active Internet-Draft on a provisional basis 
with the registered entity expected to be updated when the draft proceeds to 
RFC status?


Should we allow registration of an inactive or abandoned Internet-Draft knowing 
that the draft might not proceed to RFC status?


Should we require non-IETF EPP extensions to register their URIs using non-IETF 
namespaces?


There will be other things to consider once we have agreement on the answers to 
these questions.


Scott
