I think you should also include:

- The identifier (that might be the same for many extensions, as the id is for the DTD) -- or is this what you call "name"?

- The object or function the extension touches

- The TLD that uses the extension

- The URL to the DTD/description (if available)

I also propose "licensable" can indicate whether NDA is needed to even get the documentation (which is the case for some TLDs, i.e. you must sign up to be a registrar before you even know what extensions to EPP you must implement).
