RFC 9537, "Redacted Fields in the Registration Data Access Protocol (RDAP) Response", March 2024

Errata ID: 8006
Status: Reported
Type: Technical
Publication Format(s) : TEXT
Reported By: James Gould
Date Reported: 2024-06-27

Section 4.2 says:

The "postPath" member MUST be set when the redacted field does exist
in the redacted response for the Redaction by Empty Value Method
(Section 3.2), the Redaction by Partial Value Method
(Section 3.3), and the Redaction by Replacement Value Method
(Section 3.4).

It should say:

The "postPath" member MAY be set when the redacted field does exist
in the redacted response for the Redaction by Empty Value Method
(Section 3.2), the Redaction by Partial Value Method
(Section 3.3), and the Redaction by Replacement Value Method
(Section 3.4).

Notes:

The “postPath” member is an OPTIONAL member and this MUST can provide confusion. The intent of this sentence was to outline which of the path members (“prePath”, “postPath”, and “replacementPath”) to use when using path expressions and not to conflict with the OPTIONAL definition. All of the path expression members are defined as OPTIONAL in the RFC, so this MUST needs be changed to a MAY to correct the confusion.
