Re: [regext] EPP evolution and the REGEXT charter

["Gould, James" <[e-mail]>]

Andy,

It's not a question of fairness, but a question of what is defined in EPP RFC 5730 as it comes to extensibility of EPP.  EPP RFC 5730 includes extensibility of transport, as reflected in Section 2.1.

I am against any logic that creates different gating factors for the
different, competing solutions. Any contortion of the concept of an
EPP "extension" that results in the favor of one set of drafts over
the other is obviously unfair.

> The charter refers to EPP extensions, which transports is a form of an EPP extension. RFC 5730 defines the extension points for EPP and includes support for extending the transports based on Section 2.1 “Transport Mapping Considerations”. I don’t believe that there is a need to revise the REGEXT charter to support the additional of new EPP transports.
