Re: [regext] WGLC: draft-ietf-regext-org-02

I would like to understand the concern around the use of the roles.  There are cases where an organization can play multiple roles (registrar, privacy proxy, dns provider, etc.) that helps defined what kind of links can be made to it.  The roles on the links between the objects and the organization is needed to qualify the type of relationship that exists between the object and the organization.  When the draft only dealt with the reseller, there was a single role.  When the working group agreed to define a more generic organization object for multiple purposes, the concept of the role was needed to support it.

    Chairs,

    Do we postpone the submission to IESG or do I continue my write-up?

    @Patrick, did you have time in mean time to catch up? How would you like the draft to be changed in order to support it? I guess it's the fact that roles are defined as properties of the organization and at the same time as properties of the link?

    Kind regards

    Pieter
