Clarification 1. The fields which are explicitly listed are allowed to be blank if they have no data. But what of those fields not listed? Are those fields not allowed to be blank? It should be noted that the EPP RFCs have "voice" as an optional element, yet it is excluded from Clarification 1 as one of the fields allowed to be blank. It concerns me that a clarification document is trying to introduce new behaviour. If OPTIONAL elements are to become required, a public discussion should be had.
All fields are mandatory unless option, excluding those that can be blank, or errors in the specification ;) Or in English * optional fields - dont output the label & data if the data is not provided * fields explicity mentioned as allowed to be blank - output the label but no data if the data is not provided * everything else - output the label and the data
Clarification 7. If IP addresses are provided for name servers Clarification 8. Hosts may be added without IP addresses.
For self-referencing domains (glue) output the label, IP and FQDNs otherwise just label and FQDN
I echo Alexander's request that a complete specification, with no contradictions and no guesses, is required.
Yes, and that doenst contradict the *contract* Rob
