Title: RDAP Extensions
Reviewer: Sue Hares
Review result: On the Right Track

This Early review finds the document is clear and comprehensive, except for the
points below.

The text is on the right track. As my familiarity with RDAP and JSON is dated,
I have 3 suggestions and 1 question .

1) Split section 7.2 into pieces similar to :
7.2.1 - Registration procedures,
7.2.2 - Expert review

The split will help the expert review process by clearly defining registration
and expert review separately.

2) Section 7.2 paragraph 5, starting with "all registrations SHOULD"

Do you want to state this as a registration requirement, or as an instruction
to the expert as "latitude" accepted by this document?  It is rather unclear.
At the very least, make it clear whether it is a requirement or a suggestion
for the expert reviewer.

3) Multiple experts reviewing the document
Without at least 2 experts, this may become difficult for IANA to manage.  I
assume that the

4) How does the TLD list get expanded?  I'm a little unclear on this point.  Is
it by expert review, IETF review or something else? Did I miss this or
misunderstand the text? If I have, just kindly let me know.

Suggestion:
It seems like text on redirect and security repeats several time.  Have one of
the authors look toward reducing the repetition.
