1. Introduction

  This document describes a personal and organizational identifier
  mapping for version 1.0 of the Extensible Provisioning Protocol (EPP).
  This mapping is specified using the Extensible Markup Language (XML)
  1.0 as described in [XML] and XML Schema notation as described in
  [XMLS-1] and [XMLS-2].

  [EPP] provides a complete description of EPP command and response
  structures.  A thorough understanding of the base protocol
  specification is necessary to understand the mapping described in this
  document.

  XML is case sensitive.  Unless stated otherwise, XML specifications
  and examples provided in this document MUST be interpreted in the
  character case presented to develop a conforming implementation.

  This document is being discussed on the "ietf-provreg" mailing list.
  To join the list, send a message to <majordomo@cafax.se> with the
  words "subscribe ietf-provreg" in the body of the message.  There is a
  web site for the list archives at http://www.cafax.se/ietf-provreg.

2. Object Attributes

  An EPP contact object has attributes and associated values that may be
  viewed and modified by the sponsoring client or the server.  This
  section describes each attribute type in detail.  The formal syntax
  for the attribute values described here can be found in the "Formal
  Syntax" section of this document.

2.1 Contact and Client Identifiers

  All EPP contacts are identified by a server-unique identifier.
  Contact identifiers are character strings with a specified minimum
  length, a specified maximum length, and a specified format.  Contact
  identifiers use the "clIDType" client identifier syntax described in
  [EPP].

2.2 Status Values

  A contact object MUST always have at least one associated status
  value.  Status values MAY be set only by the client that sponsors a
  contact object and by the server on which the object resides.  A
  client MAY change the status of a contact object using the EPP
  <update> command.  Each status value MAY be accompanied by a string of
  human-readable text that describes the rationale for the status
  applied to the object.

  A client MUST NOT alter status values set by the server.  A server MAY
  alter or override status values set by a client subject to local
  server policies.

  Status values that may be added or removed by a client are prefixed
  with "client".  Corresponding status values that may be added or
  removed by a server are prefixed with "server".  Status values that do
  not begin with either "client" or "server" are server-managed.

  Status Value Descriptions:

  clientDeleteProhibited, serverDeleteProhibited

  Requests to delete the object MUST be rejected.

  clientTransferProhibited, serverTransferProhibited

  Requests to transfer the object MUST be rejected.

  clientUpdateProhibited, serverUpdateProhibited

  Requests to update the object (other than to remove this status) MUST

Internet-Draft            EPP Contact mapping              June 29, 2001


  be rejected.

  linked

  The contact object has at least one active association with another
  object, such as a domain object.  Servers SHOULD provide services to
  determine existing object associations.

  ok

  This is the nominal status value for an object that has no pending
  operations or prohibitions.

  pendingDelete

  A delete request has been received for the object, but the object has
  not yet been purged from the server database.

  pendingTransfer

  A transfer request has been received for the object, and completion of
  the request is pending.  Transform commands other than <transfer> MUST
  be rejected while an object is in this state.

  "ok" status MAY only be combined with "linked" status.  "linked"
  status MAY be combined with any status.  "pendingDelete" status MUST
  NOT be combined with either "clientDeleteProhibited" or
  "serverDeleteProhibited" status. "pendingTransfer" status MUST NOT be
  combined with either "clientTransferProhibited" or
  "serverTransferProhibited" status.  All other status value
  combinations are valid.

2.3 Individual and Organizational Names

  Individual and organizational names associated with a contact are
  represented using character strings.  These strings have a specified
  minimum length and a specified maximum length.  Individual and
  organizational names MAY be provided in both a subset of UTF-8
  [RFC2279] that can be represented in 7-bit ASCII [US-ASCII] and
  unrestricted UTF-8.

2.4 Address

  Every contact has associated postal address information.  A postal
  address contains street information, city information, OPTIONAL
  state/province information, an OPTIONAL postal code, and a country
  identifier as described in [ISO11180].  Address information MAY be
  provided in both a subset of UTF-8 [RFC2279] that can be represented



Hollenbeck             Expires December 29, 2001                [Page 5]


Internet-Draft            EPP Contact mapping              June 29, 2001


  in 7-bit ASCII [US-ASCII] and unrestricted UTF-8.  Address elements
  MUST be exchanged in the order described in the protocol schema, but
  display order MAY be altered to reflect local preferences.

2.4.1 Street, City, and State or Province

  Contact street, city, and state or province information is represented
  using character strings.  These strings have a specified minimum
  length and a specified maximum length.

2.4.2 Postal Code

  Contact postal codes are represented using character strings.  These
  strings have a specified minimum length and a specified maximum
  length.

2.4.3 Country

  Contact country identifiers are represented using two-character
  identifiers specified in [ISO3166].

2.5 Telephone Numbers

  Contact telephone number structure requirements are defined in
  [E164a].  Telephone numbers described in this mapping are character
  strings that MUST begin with a plus sign ("+", ASCII value 0x002B),
  followed by a country code defined in [E164b], followed by a dot (".",
  ASCII value 0x002E), followed by a sequence of digits representing the
  telephone number.  An optional "x" attribute is provided to note
  telephone extension information.

2.6 E-Mail Addresses

  E-mail address syntax is defined in [RFC2822].  This mapping does not
  prescribe minimum or maximum lengths for character strings used to
  represent e-mail addresses.

2.7 Dates and Times

  Date and time attribute values MUST be represented in Universal
  Coordinated Time (UTC) using the Gregorian calendar. Both extended and
  truncated date and time forms defined in [ISO8601] MAY be used, though
  a server SHOULD use one form or the other consistently.

2.8 Authorization Information

  Authorization information is associated with domain objects to
  facilitate transfer operations.  Authorization information is assigned

  when a domain object is created, and it MAY be updated in the future.
  This specification describes password-based authorization information,
  though other mechanisms are possible.

3. EPP Command mapping

  A detailed description of the EPP syntax and semantics can be found in
  [EPP].  The command mappings described here are specifically for use
  in provisioning and managing contact objects via EPP.

3.1 EPP Query Commands

  EPP provides three commands to retrieve contact information: <check>
  to determine if a contact object is known to the server, <info> to
  retrieve detailed information associated with a contact object, and
  <transfer> to retrieve contact object transfer status information.

3.1.1 EPP <check> Command

  The EPP <check> command is used to determine if a contact object is
  known to the server.  In addition to the standard EPP command
  elements, the <check> command MUST contain a <contact:check> element
  that identifies the contact namespace and the location of the contact
  schema.  The <contact:check> element contains the following child
  elements:

  - One or more <contact:id> elements that contain the server-unique
  identifier of the contact objects to be queried.

  Example <check> command:

  C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
  C:<epp xmlns="urn:iana:xml:ns:epp-1.0"
  C:     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  C:     xsi:schemaLocation="urn:iana:xml:ns:epp-1.0 epp-1.0.xsd">
  C:  <command>
  C:    <check>
  C:      <contact:check xmlns:contact="urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0"
  C:       xsi:schemaLocation="urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0
  C:       contact-1.0.xsd">
  C:        <contact:id>sh8013</contact:id>
  C:        <contact:id>sah8013</contact:id>
  C:        <contact:id>8013sah</contact:id>
  C:      </contact:check>
  C:    </check>
  C:    <unspec/>
  C:    <clTRID>ABC-12346</clTRID>
  C:  </command>
  C:</epp>

  When a <check> command has been processed successfully, the EPP
  <resData> element MUST contain a child <contact:chkData> element that



Hollenbeck             Expires December 29, 2001                [Page 8]


Internet-Draft            EPP Contact mapping              June 29, 2001


  identifies the contact namespace and the location of the contact
  schema. The <contact:chkData> element contains the following child
  elements:

  - One or more <contact:cd> elements that contain the repository object
  identifier for the queried contact objects and an "x" attribute whose
  value identifies the object as either "+" for a known object or "-"
  for an unknown object.

  Example <check> response:

  S:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
  S:<epp xmlns="urn:iana:xml:ns:epp-1.0"
  S:     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  S:     xsi:schemaLocation="urn:iana:xml:ns:epp-1.0 epp-1.0.xsd">
  S:  <response>
  S:    <result code="1000">
  S:      <msg>Command completed successfully</msg>
  S:    </result>
  S:    <resData>
  S:      <contact:chkData xmlns:contact="urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0"
  S:       xsi:schemaLocation="urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0
  S:       contact-1.0.xsd">
  S:        <contact:cd x="+">sh8013</contact:cd>
  S:        <contact:cd x="-">sah8013</contact:cd>
  S:        <contact:cd x="+">8013sah</contact:cd>
  S:      </contact:chkData>
  S:    </resData>
  S:    <unspec/>
  S:    <trID>
  S:      <clTRID>ABC-12346</clTRID>
  S:      <svTRID>54322-XYZ</svTRID>
  S:    </trID>
  S:  </response>
  S:</epp>

  An EPP error response MUST be returned if a <check> command can not be
  processed for any reason.

3.1.2 EPP <info> Command

  The EPP <info> command is used to retrieve information associated with
  a contact object.  In addition to the standard EPP command elements,
  the <info> command MUST contain a <contact:info> element that
  identifies the contact namespace and the location of the contact
  schema.  The <contact:info> element contains the following child
  elements:

Internet-Draft            EPP Contact mapping              June 29, 2001


  - A <contact:id> element that contains the server-unique identifier of
  the contact object to be queried.

  Example <info> command:

  C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
  C:<epp xmlns="urn:iana:xml:ns:epp-1.0"
  C:     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  C:     xsi:schemaLocation="urn:iana:xml:ns:epp-1.0 epp-1.0.xsd">
  C:  <command>
  C:    <info>
  C:      <contact:info xmlns:contact="urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0"
  C:       xsi:schemaLocation="urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0
  C:       contact-1.0.xsd">
  C:        <contact:id>sh8013</contact:id>
  C:      </contact:info>
  C:    </info>
  C:    <unspec/>
  C:    <clTRID>ABC-12346</clTRID>
  C:  </command>
  C:</epp>

  When an <info> command has been processed successfully, the EPP
  <resData> element MUST contain a child <contact:infData> element that
  identifies the contact namespace and the location of the contact
  schema. The <contact:infData> element contains the following child
  elements:

  - A <contact:id> element that contains the server-unique identifier of
  the contact object.

  - A <contact:roid> element that contains the Repository Object
  IDentifier assigned to the contact object when the object was created.

  - One or more <contact:status> elements that describe the status of
  the contact object.

  - A <contact:ascii> element that contains child elements whose content
  MUST be represented in a subset of UTF-8 that can be represented in
  the 7-bit US-ASCII character set.

  - An OPTIONAL <contact:i15d> ("i15d" is short for "internationalized")
  element that contains child elements whose content MAY be represented
  in unrestricted UTF-8.  The <contact:ascii> and <contact:i15d>
  elements contain the following child elements:

    - A <contact:name> element that contains the name of the individual
    or role represented by the contact.

  An EPP error response MUST be returned if an <info> command can not be
  processed for any reason.

3.1.3 EPP <transfer> Command

  The EPP <transfer> command provides a query operation that allows a
  client to determine real-time status of pending and completed transfer
  requests.  In addition to the standard EPP command elements, the
  <transfer> command MUST contain an "op" attribute with value "query",
  and a <contact:transfer> element that identifies the contact namespace

  An EPP error response MUST be returned if a <transfer> query command
  can not be processed for any reason.

3.2 EPP Transform Commands

  EPP provides four commands to transform contact object information:
  <create> to create an instance of a contact object, <delete> to delete
  an instance of a contact object, <transfer> to manage contact object
  sponsorship changes, and <update> to change information associated
  with a contact object.  This document does not define a mapping for
  the EPP <renew> command.

3.2.1 EPP <create> Command

  The EPP <create> command provides a transform operation that allows a
  client to create a contact object.  In addition to the standard EPP
  command elements, the <create> command MUST contain a <contact:create>
  element that identifies the contact namespace and the location of the
  contact schema.  The <contact:create> element contains the following
  child elements:

  - A <contact:id> element that contains the desired server-unique
  identifier for the contact to be created.

  - A <contact:ascii> element that contains child elements whose content
  MUST be represented in a subset of UTF-8 that can be represented in
  the 7-bit US-ASCII character set.

  - An OPTIONAL <contact:i15d> ("i15d" is short for "internationalized")
  element that contains child elements whose content MAY be represented
  in unrestricted UTF-8.  The <contact:ascii> and <contact:i15d>
  elements contain the following child elements:

    - A <contact:name> element that contains the name of the individual
    or role represented by the contact.

    - An OPTIONAL <contact:org> element that contains the name of the
    organization with which the contact is affiliated.

    - A <contact:addr> element that contains address information
    associated with the contact.  A <contact:addr> element contains the
    following child elements:

      - One, two, or three <contact:street> elements that contain the
      contact's street address.

      - A <contact:city> element that contains the contact's city.

      - An OPTIONAL <contact:sp> element that contains the contact's
      state or province.

      - An OPTIONAL <contact:pc> element that contains the contact's
      postal code.

      - A <contact:cc> element that contains the contact's country code.

  - An OPTIONAL <contact:voice> element that contains the contact's
  voice telephone number.

  - An OPTIONAL <contact:fax> element that contains the contact's
  facsimile telephone number.

  - A <contact:email> element that contains the contact's e-mail
  address.

  - A <contact:authInfo> element that contains authorization information
  to be associated with the contact object.

3.2.2 EPP <delete> Command

  The EPP <delete> command provides a transform operation that allows a
  client to delete a contact object.  In addition to the standard EPP
  command elements, the <delete> command MUST contain a <contact:delete>
  element that identifies the contact namespace and the location of the
  contact schema.  The <contact:delete> element MUST contain the
  following child elements:

  - A <contact:id> element that contains the server-unique identifier of
  the contact object to be deleted.

  A contact object SHOULD NOT be deleted if it is associated with other
  known objects.  An associated contact SHOULD NOT be deleted until
  associations with other known objects have been broken.

3.2.4 EPP <transfer> Command

  The EPP <transfer> command provides a transform operation that allows
  a client to manage requests to transfer the sponsorship of a contact
  object.  In addition to the standard EPP command elements, the
  <transfer> command MUST contain a <contact:transfer> element that
  identifies the contact namespace and the location of the contact
  schema. The <contact:transfer> element contains the following child
  elements:

  - A <contact:id> element that contains the server-unique identifier of
  the contact object  for which a transfer request is to be created,
  approved, rejected, or cancelled.

  - A <contact:authInfo> element that contains authorization information
  associated with the contact object.  This element is REQUIRED only
  when a transfer is requested, and it MUST be ignored if used
  otherwise.

  Every EPP <transfer> command MUST contain an "op" attribute that
  identifies the transfer operation to be performed as defined in [EPP].

  Example <transfer> request command:

  C:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
  C:<epp xmlns="urn:iana:xml:ns:epp-1.0"
  C:     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  C:     xsi:schemaLocation="urn:iana:xml:ns:epp-1.0 epp-1.0.xsd">
  C:  <command>
  C:    <transfer op="request">
  C:      <contact:transfer xmlns:contact="urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0"
  C:       xsi:schemaLocation="urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0
  C:       contact-1.0.xsd">
  C:        <contact:id>sh8013</contact:id>
  C:        <contact:authInfo type="pw">2fooBAR</contact:authInfo>

  C:    </transfer>
  C:    <unspec/>
  C:    <clTRID>ABC-12346</clTRID>
  C:  </command>
  C:</epp>

  When a <transfer> command has been processed successfully, the EPP
  <resData> element MUST contain a child <contact:trnData> element that
  identifies the contact namespace and the location of the contact
  schema.  The <contact:trnData> element contains the same child
  elements defined for a transfer query response.

  contain the following child elements:

  - One or more <contact:status> elements that contain status values to
  be associated with or removed from the object.  When specifying a
  value to be removed, only the attribute value is significant; element
  text is not required to match a value for removal.

  A <contact:chg> element contains the following OPTIONAL child
  elements.  At least one child element MUST be present:

  - A <contact:ascii> element that contains child elements whose content
  MUST be represented in a subset of UTF-8 that can be represented in
  the 7-bit US-ASCII character set.

  - A <contact:i15d> ("i15d" is short for "internationalized") element
  that contains child elements whose content MAY be represented in
  unrestricted UTF-8.  The <contact:ascii> and <contact:i15d> elements

  An EPP object mapping is specified in XML Schema notation.  The formal
  syntax presented here is a complete schema representation of the
  object mapping suitable for automated validation of EPP XML instances.

5. Internationalization Considerations

  EPP is represented in XML, which provides native support for encoding
  information using the Unicode character set and its more compact
  representations including UTF-8.  Compliant XML processors are
  REQUIRED to understand both UTF-8 and UTF-16.  Though XML includes
  provisions to identify other character set encodings through use of an
  "encoding" attribute in an <?xml?> declaration, EPP use with character
  sets other than UTF-8 is NOT RECOMMENDED.

  All date-time values presented via EPP MUST be expressed in Universal
  Coordinated Time using the Gregorian calendar.  XML Schema allows use
  of time zone identifiers to indicate offsets from the zero meridian,
  but this option MUST NOT be used with EPP.  Both extended and
  truncated date and time forms defined in [ISO8601] MAY be used, though
  a server SHOULD use one form or the other consistently.

  Humans, organizations, and other entities often need to represent
  social information in both a commonly understood character set and a
  locally optimized character set.  This specification provides features
  allowing representation of social information in both a subset of
  UTF-8 for broad readability and unrestricted UTF-8 for local
  optimization.

6. IANA Considerations

  XML schemas require a URI for unique identification.  Schemas MUST be
  registered to ensure URI uniqueness, but the IETF does not currently
  have a recommended repository for the registration of XML schemas.
  This document uses URNs to describe XML namespaces and XML schemas
  conforming to a registry mechanism described in [IANA-XML].

  IANA SHOULD maintain a registry of XML namespace and schema URI
  assignments.  URI assignment requests SHOULD be reviewed by a
  designated expert, and values SHOULD be assigned only as a result of
  standards action taken by the IESG.

  This document requests assignment of the following URIs:

  urn:iana:xml:ns:contact-1.0: The namespace URI for this EPP mapping.

  urn:iana:xml:schema:contact-1.0: The schema URI for this EPP mapping.

7. Security Considerations

  The object mapping described in this document does not provide any
  security services beyond those specified by [EPP] and protocol layers
  used by EPP.
