To emphasise what Scott already pointed out, it's not going to create an "easier to use EPP API". It's going to create a new protocol, sort of like EPP. Normally, what we hear is how difficult it is to deal with the plethora of extensions -- the tiny differences in the various extensions make everything too hard for registries and registrars alike. (Given some servers' carelessness with their namespaces, actually, this isn't that surprising. The greeting turns out to be a crummy guide to the extensions actually on offer in many deployed implementations.) I'm finding it a little hard to believe that it will be easier to solve this problem by ditching EPP in favour of a completely new protocol with a new set of such challenges.
