For whatever it's worth, my recollection is that, among other things, you offered the sort of calm, reasoned, fully-explained analysis that you and Nick Weaver seem to be competing to offer in this discussion, with the all-caps lines and everything. But in any case, since that was another WG and since that document is published, I'm not sure the value in debating the history. There _is_ discussion of some of these issues in 6840, and I think it is helpful for people to have read it. It would not surprise me, of course, if it turned out that 6840 or any other document about the DNS turned out to have some issues. > Actually it does as it shows that recursive servers need to validate. No, it shows that under some use cases the recursive server will provide better results if it validates, which is subtly different from what you say there. "Need to" is too strong. "Undesirable things happen if not" might be true.
