Hi, Tim, I would like to request a time slot of 15 minutes to discuss the 
topic on optimizing DNS authority server placement. As we know, the 
geographical distribution of DNS authority servers (include root, TLD and other 
authority servers in the DNS hierarchy) highly affects the financial costs 
(such as server, energy and bandwidth costs) from the DNS operator's point of 
view and also the DNS resolution latency from the DNS client's point of view. 
Let us consider the following question: when hundreds even thousands of 
potential deployment locations are given, which locations (may be several or 
tens of) should be selected to deploy DNS authority servers of a specific DNS 
zone (for instance, .CN) so that the DNS resolution delay is minimized while 
the financial costs do not exceed their budget? It is not easy to answer this 
question though fundamentally we think that those locations with low financial 
level and close proximity to DNS clients should be selected. To the best of our 
knowledge, there is still no rigorous authority server placement approach yet 
and thus most DNS operators just choose locations according to their personal 
experience. 

Due to DNS attacks like DDOS attack, the deployment of DNSSEC as well as the 
launch of new gTLDs, more and more authority servers will be deployed and thus 
we think it makes sense to discuss this topic in DNSOP WG. On the following 
meeting, we would like to discuss use cases and two approaches proposed by us 
on this topic. 



Any suggestions? 

Look forward to see you soon in London!

for agenda items for London 
 
Greetings,
 
London is less than a month away, and we should start soliciting agenda 
items.  I requsted a 2 hour session instead of the normally tight 1.5 
hours, and they gave us Friday Morning for 2.5 hours.  I attempted to do 
some horse trading with httpbis as they liked that slot, but nothing 
quite worked.
 
We already have some time for the privacy drafts floating around, 
especially discussing the requirements.  But feel free to email us with 
suggestions, requests, etc.  As we did in Vancouver, we've been given 
some latitude from our great and glorious AD to be more open in what we 
accept.
 
thanks
tim
