Re: [eppext] Fwd: New Version Notification for draft-brown-epp-fees-04.txt

While I think this extension is well written and valuable I do have to
question if a standards track is appropriate?

The competing version of this is the UnitedTLD "Price Categories Guide"
http://rightside.co/fileadmin/downloads/policies/Rightside_Price_Categories.pdf
which has not been formally published. However its in active use by
Rightside, Donuts and Domain Name Services (that I know of) meaning that
around 190 new TLDs are using it or about to do so.

So the question is where do we go to from here? Do we try and get Rightside
to have the original author publish it to the EPP extension registry or do
we pretend it doesn't exist and ignore the significant percentage of new
TLDs using it?
