Re: RFC3731: domain:roid in <info> response

Alex,
making the element OPTIONAL could create some problems for EPP clients. 
A domain object with the same name can be deleted and later recreated. I 
don't see anything else than <domain:roid> in domain info response that 
would allow EPP clients detection of such situations.

cheers,
