I note that IETF have formed a working group to develop a standards track protocol for a provisioning/registration protocol. The main driver is the need for a standard protocol for used in a competitive registration environment. Both gTLD and ccTLD folk are participating. The list is located at ietf-provreg(a)cafax.se (send subscribe message to ietf-provreg-request(a)cafax.se) There is a mail archive available at http://www.cafax.se/ietf-provreg/ The wg is currently developing a charter. In the interests of a more enjoyable 2001, I have unsubscribed myself from every isocnz/domainz related list. If anybody feels the need to tell them about the prov/reg wg please feel free to do so.
