I've been reading the dane-smtp draft and have a further thought...

DNS lookup error handling is more comprehensively specified in the

Yes, Section 2.1 of draft-ietf-dane-smtp-with-dane is indeed quite
comprehensive. I am hesitant to copy it to draft-ietf-dane-srv primarily
because copying introduces the possibility of divergence in text and
secondarily because that text talks about SMTP. It seems safer to me if
we point to that text from the dane-srv specification.

Upon reading the dane-smtp document again, I am thinking more strongly that the text in Section 2.1 applies to most application protocols, not only SMTP; thus I wonder if we can move it to a more general document.

Chairs & WG, what do you think?

Peter
