gTLD Registries want to have full requirements and an implementation plan for all RDSS (i.e. whois, rdap) related activities, therefore the schedule to have the gTLD profile ready looks tight.
Gustavo, what's driving that schedule? How does it fit with the RDDS policy development processes that are either under way or being considered? The EWG I was part of made a number of recommendations that depend on RDAP. Where do those recommendations come into play?
The schedule for implementing the thick Whois policy that is under way.
This gTLD registry operator wants to be sure that we do this once, we do it so that we don't have to undo things in the future, and we make implementation decisions based on consensus policies. If that takes time, so be it.
I think that we share the same objective. The gTLD profile was sent to the RySG, RrSG, ICANN gtld-tech mailing list, and this group in order to obtain feedback. The RDAP profile will be published once that the ICANN-contracted parties agree that it¹s ready. This is the same the process that we used with the Whois clarification advisory. The schedule that Francisco described in his email (i.e. http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/gtld-tech/2015-September/000507.html) appears to work from our perspective, but based on the feedback, it may not work. A great percentage of the provisions in the gTLD profile are related to ICANN policy, and some are just a translation of the requirements in the Registry Agreement and the Whois advisory (I.e. https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/registry-agreement-raa-rdds-2015-04-2 7-en) to RDAP. There are provisions that could be part of a BCP, but I don't think that there is an issue. We can work in the gTLD profile and BCP(s) in parallel. Once the BCP(s) are ready, the gTLD profile is modified or a new version is released. I think that is really important to consider all users of RDAP (I.e. ccTLDs, gTLDs, RIRs) if the WG decides to work on BCP(s). Regards, Gustavo
