Dear Dave,

I speak on behalf  of .it and it seems to me that there are some big 
problems we have to face in order to implement a RDAP server.
The first three things coming in my mind about RDAP responses are the 
following:

- domain status
   Due to Italian regulation, we have introduced some statuses in 
addition to EPP standard and RGP extension statuses.
   At the moment, the only way to represent this statuses according to 
the RDAP profile is to add an unrecognized member together with a status 
reported in RFC7483

- Registrar role publicIDs member
   The RDAP profile states that the entity with the registrar role MUST 
contain a publicIDs member to identify IANA Registrar ID from the IANA's 
Registrar ID registry.
   In .it, we have a lot of medium/small registrars registering only .it 
domains so none of them appear in the IANA Registrar ID registry.
   Furthermore, there are some domains managed by the registry itself 
(nic.it for example) or by italian public entities registrars 
(government, regions, and so on)

- Registrant/admin/tech role required fields
According to .it regulation,  each contact cannot give the consent to 
publish the personal data on WHOIS.
Street,City and Country are part of the personal data so they might not 
appear in a RDAP response

Maybe these problems are common to other ccTLDs.
In my humble opinion, we need a discussion about the adoption of RDAP 
from ccTLDs in order to have, at the end, a RDAP profile for ccTLDs .

Mario
