by Dmitry Belyavsky Oct. 11, 2020

Oct. 11, 2020

Dear colleagues, Here is the updated version of the draft describing the usage of the Internationalized Email Addresses (EAI) in the EPP protocol. This version provides a specification to submit EAI to the registries via the EPP protocol extension. Any feedback is welcomed! ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: <internet-drafts(a)ietf.org> Date: Sun, Oct 11, 2020 at 2:35 PM Subject: New Version Notification for draft-belyavskiy-epp-eai-01.txt To: Dmitry Belyavskiy <beldmit(a)gmail.com> A new version of I-D, draft-belyavskiy-epp-eai-01.txt has been successfully submitted by Dmitry Belyavskiy and posted to the IETF repository.

Using EAI in the EPP protocol
by Dmitry Belyavsky Oct. 9, 2020

Oct. 9, 2020

Dear colleagues, I've just submitted a specification allowing usage of EAI in the EPP protocol to the IETF regext working group. If there is any interest in this work, it's worth subscribing the regext mailing list (https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/regext) and explicitly supporting the work on the document. Many thanks! -- SY, Dmitry Belyavsky

Re: [UA-discuss] [UA-EAI] [UA-Tech] Using EAI in the EPP protocol
by Dmitry Belyavsky Oct. 9, 2020

Oct. 9, 2020

Dear Nicolas, I'm not familiar with using EPP out of domain registration scope. If it is more or less common EPP, the extension will fit these purposes too. BTW, for domains, we have RDAP supporting various internationalized data. Not sure what do we have for access to regional and subregional registries data. Whois will not work for EAI.
