Ballot Text

Technical Summary

This document defines an operational practice, using the EPP RFCs, that
leverages the use of strong random authorization information values that
are short-lived, that are not stored by the client, and that are stored
using a cryptographic hash by the server to provide for secure
authorization information used for transfers.

Working Group Summary

The document has been discussed within the regext working group with the
authors addressing all comments by incorporating agreed upon changes
into the document.  There was nothing worthy of noting during the WG
Process.
