The IESG has received a request from the Web Extensible Internet Registration Data Service WG (weirds) to consider the following document: - 'HTTP usage in the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP)' <draft-ietf-weirds-using-http-13.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2014-10-24. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Note that this is a second Last Call. During its initial IESG Evaluation, the IESG had several issues to address. This document has addressed those issues. Note also that this document refers to draft-ietf-weirds-bootstrap. Last Call for that document is coming soon, but review on this document can be done at this time. Abstract This document is one of a collection that together describe the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP). It describes how RDAP is transported using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). RDAP is a successor protocol to the very old WHOIS protocol. The purpose of this document is to clarify the use of standard HTTP mechanisms for this application. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-weirds-using-http/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-weirds-using-http/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
