I suspect I may have worded things poorly, this isn't quite what I think. Just FYI, Paul and I had a chat last night in a really quite nice pub. I was saying that I think both of the above are merely different ways of looking at the same thing (a less strict slave, or a more knowledgeable cache). I also spent some time playing devil's advocate on returning AA vs not AA (it's entirely possible I was pontificating...) Anyway, I think that this solution shouldn't return AA bits -- this is more easily thought of as a cache pre-population system, with the added benefit of knowing the entire zone (so you already know what *doesn't* exist. > > That's fine: it is supposed to be a consensus document and we aren't there > yet. Yup. The draft has an entire Open Questions section -- we specifically want to develop this with folk in DNSOP. We could have come along with a finished document, saying "This is how you should do this - there, we fixed it for you...", and then fight over all the bits y;all thing we got wrong. Instead we'd much rather design this *with* everyone so we end up with a better solution (and with less tears too!) > My hope is that DNSOP doesn't become too DNSEXT-like where if the -00 for a > proposal isn't universally loved, it is destroyed instead of worked on. > > --Paul Hoffman > _______________________________________________ > DNSOP mailing list > DNSOP@ietf.org > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
