Re: Standard Extensions

It's been a long time since I started this thread back in January. Someone recently asked me a question about an EPP extension, so I thought it wise to see if I could revisit the discussion and post a summary. Here's the original question:

> Let's assume for a moment that we have enough interest to form a 
> working group focused on the development of a set of standard EPP 
> extensions. If we had to start writing a charter today, what 
> functionality would people most like to see included?

and here's a summary of the suggestions (my apologies if I missed any), including new efforts that have recently surfaced:

1. A garbage collection mechanism.

2. Extension for registrars to get registry/zone policy information.

3. Extension to provide account status information to registrars.

4. An IDN extension*.

5. A TLD launch extension*.

6. A trademark management extension*.

7. Standardized registry-to-registrar notifications.

8. An extension for VAT and/or tax ID information.

9. An extension for a legal/personal attribute on contact objects.

10. An extension for additional status value and/or result codes, perhaps with an associated IANA registry.

11. An extension for cryptographic signatures.

12. An extension for delegation errors/warnings.

Those that are described in a draft I've seen are marked with an asterisk. IMHO twelve is probably too many to bootstrap a new working group. If we could whittle this down to 6 or 7 AND we have actual drafts written for consideration it may be possible for us to get something going.

Which of the above topics has been addressed in a draft? Who is willing to write drafts for those topics that haven't yet been addressed?
