Dear DNSOP, I support advancing the document in its current form.
There's a broken sentence in Section 5: "Care must be taken to ensure that the mapping of thepseudo-TLD into its corresponding non-DNS name resolution system inorder to get whatever security is offered by that system." --> the "that" clause lacks a verb. (... ensure that the mapping ... [what]?) At the occasion of fixing that, I'll also note two other suggestions / potential improvements: - Section 2: "wastes resources": whose? Only the root servers' mentioned in the same sentence? Suggestion: "wastes resources on both the resolver and the root server side." - Section 5: Amend the last sentence with something like "in particular, the risk of collisions with and subsequent compromise through other naming systems existing now or in the future should be considered". (I know the previous versions has something similar, but this is less strong, and I think it's worthwhile pointing out what people are getting into.) Thanks, Peter On 12/13/22 21:26, Suzanne Woolf wrote:
Dear colleagues, This message will serve to start a Working Group Last Call on “The ALT Special Use Top Level Domain” (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-alt-tld/ <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-alt-tld/>). Due to the end-of-year holidays, we’re starting it now and will give it four weeks. As you’ve seen from Paul Hoffman’s email, the authors have updated to version 19 based on the feedback they heard at IETF 115. Thanks Paul and Warren! The WG is very familiar with this document by now, and the WGLC is to determine whether the document has rough consensus to progress. The chairs need to know whether you support it (which, for this purpose, includes “I can live with it”), or actively oppose publishing it. Please also assume that any necessary liaison communications with ICANN will be undertaken if this document has WG consensus to move forward. Managing the potential for misunderstanding or differences of opinion among relevant organizations is the primary reason why the IETF has liaison relationships. The IETF liaison to the ICANN Board is Harald Alvestrand, who has been monitoring the conversations about alt-tld on the mailing list and has discussed the draft with the chairs and with Rob Wilton as the responsible AD. Start date: 13 December 2022 End date: 10 January 2023 Many thanks, Suzanne, Tim, and Benno _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
