'organization' appears to be empty.

Describe the issue

The RFC schema contains a organization field, and the API documentation implies that this can be used: https://bib.ietf.org/api/v1/#operation/searchBibItems (contributor -> person -> affiliation)

From this I'd assume that something like: '{"contributor": [{"person": {"affiliation": {"name": ["Google"] }}}]}' should work, but it returns: "No bibliographic items were found matching the query."

It appears that the organization, affiliation, etc fields are basically always empty, even though it is populated in documents -- e.g from RFC 8244.json: {"role": ["author"], "person":{"name": {"completename": {"content": "W. Kumari", "format": null, "script": ["Latn"], "language": ["en"]}, "prefix": null, "forename": null, "initial": [{"content": "W.", "format": null, "script": ["Latn"], "language": ["en"]}], "surname": {"content": "Kumari", "format": null, "script":["Latn"], "language": ["en"]}, "addition": null}, "affiliation": null, "contact": null}, "organization": null}]

But the document itself has this populated, and tools like the 'draft_metadata_extractor.py' worked just fine with it: docaffiliations='Ted Lemon [email protected] (Nominum, Inc.), Ralph Droms [email protected] (), Warren Kumari [email protected] (Google)'

It seems like either the datastore / files should be updated with the info, or the API documentation should make it clearer that many of the selectors are not populated.
