IMHO the spec should contain the basic parameters then each registry
can
extend to accomodate the applicable policy
(_laws_of_the_jurisdiction)
..... which probably means that Registars, if they want to trade in
the
jurisdiciton will have to adjust their interfaces (C2Rr and Rr2Ry)
accordingly.
The effect will be that gTLD Registries (as ccTLD registries have to
do
already) must respect national operating conditions if they want
customers from that nation.... but such is politics not technology
in idle moments, i am trying to understand the mechanisms and
poilicy useful/needed by a swedish registrant, using a registrar
located in brasil, to register in a domain which has its registry
in say american or new zealand juristiction. and, of course, the
registrant has personal preferences, "don't publish my fax number."
Does it seem that a simple, boolean "do not disclose" flag on each
field is sufficient to accommodate the privacy requirements of that
scenario?
