Just as a background information, I ask these questions not because we want to generate CSV format, but we need to read this (in the context of EBERO). So from my understanding, it would be valid for a registry regarding the -05 version of the document to omit the "fPostalType" field at all (since it is not "required") and include two sets of fields, if it meets its needs, for example, if both versions are mandatory. This could look like the following (modified example from the specs):


Klaus question suggested me another point that I'm curious about: are all EBEROs providing capability for doing emergency failover of registries running host attributes instead of host records ? Although host records are the most usual solution among gTLD registries, not all new gTLD registries will use host records. As a matter of fact I know of at least 5 TLDs running on host attributes, could be more among the 1345 new gTLDs.
