Rick,
While the GRRP requirements draft defines management of contact objects as a
mandatory protocol feature, the draft also says that a thin registry does
not have to support management of contacts.

Kent,
you raze several issues that I certainly have no answer for:
o where does the policy belong, there are poliicy decision made
in protocols and even RRP 1.1.0 has them, which ones should
we make as part of gRRP's requirements.
o I don't have an answer on notification but I will tru to come up
with some proposals.
o correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the requirirements got gRRP
define the registry as "thick" since contact objects are required?
