if the software base isn't conformant to the Queued documents (better yet the resulting RFCs), I'd be wary to count on it for my operations.
This is a very strange argument. Gandi's IRI works with the EPP actually used in the registries. This makes sense, from an user's point of view.
Well, yes, it is strange - I would even by wary of it's use in operations at the point mentioned. Wary doesn't mean don't - wary means that I am careful. It's like when a car mechanic tells you that your car is running fine, but be wary of the brakes. Yes, normally the car runs fine and that is good for the user. But at some time a hard stop is needed, and if that overloads the brakes, the users had better be wary (seatbelt!). -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Edward Lewis +1-703-227-9854 ARIN Research Engineer ...as graceful as a blindfolded bull in a china shop...
