Hi Ben and Michele,

The requirement has been discussed in the context of the Thick Whois Policy implementation. Please see  https://whois.icann.org/sites/default/files/files/thick-rdds-consensus-policy-draft-25nov15-en.pdf, particularly section 2.1, starting on page 8. By the way, this document is in public comment at https://www.icann.org/public-comments/rdds-output-2015-12-03-en until 31 January.

Regards,

Francisco,

I don't see any explanation for making registries store and publish the "Registrar Registration Expiration Date" in the "ICANN Thick Whois Policy Recommendation".  What is the use case we are trying to solve for?

Ben
