[gtld-tech] RDAP question

My interpretation is that it says "response", and a single RDAP
response can hold many objects. Therefore this should go into
"notices".

Also I hope ICANN updates that web page once REGEXT has the EPP->RDAP
response code mappings done (and they should point to the IANA
registry for informative purposes).
