Re: [regext] Using RDAP as a Domain Availability Service

[Jonas Brømsø Nielsen <[e-mail]>]

Hello,

I do not see why RDAP should not be taken into consideration for this?

We have implemented a DAS service by request from registrars since this was pointed out to us as a de facto standard.

The service is implemented as a basic proprietary RESTful interface (https://github.com/DK-Hostmaster/das-service-specification <https://github.com/DK-Hostmaster/das-service-specification>).

The results rendered here are just the same as would be reflected if your would inquire via EPP, WHOIS or any other service we offer, the only variations are the amounts of data and the protocols.

IMHO a RDAP implementation of this would be most welcome so registrars could use a standardised protocol instead of variations like the one we implemented.
