RDDSRecord

Registration data for a taken domain, normalised across RDAP and WHOIS. source names the protocol that produced the record; RDAP records carry the full directory metadata (notices, links, conformance), while WHOIS records populate the subset they can and leave those empty. Contact fields are reproduced verbatim; a withheld field is reported through the entity's redacted flag and remarks, with redaction giving the registry's a-priori posture.
