Moin!

I am an assigned DNS directorate reviewer for
draft-ietf-regext-rdap-ttl-extension.

The draft is well written and the DNS related aspects are covered correctly. I
think it is ready for publication.

There is one nit that could be addressed. In section 6, Security
Considerations, the authors try to describe that configuration of TTL values
and the security considerations of those values are out of scope for the
document. Which is correct but how it is described was a bit confusing, which
might be because I'm not a native speaker, but as we want RFC to be readable I
propose making this a bit more explicit e.g:

This document only concerns itself with the representation of configured TTL
values for domain and host objects.  Security considerations for the actual
configured TTL values are out of scope.  Readers may refer to Section 6 of
[RFC9803] for the security implications of configuring those values.

It is a bit duplication, so maybe you can come up with a better wording, but
the original paragraph took me some time to parse.

So long
-Ralf
