Agreed.

I've talked to Peter at some length.  The problem is that you will often have
different targets for different children of the same parent, i.e., registrars
rather than registries, and I don't see any good way of putting per-child
info in the parent, particularly a large parent like .ORG or .COM.

The existing NOTIFY for AXFR is perfectly usable without a mechanical
way to say where to send the notifications, so my proposal is to
continue not to have one. All of the existing AXFR NOTIFY receivers I
know have ACLs to only accept notifications from relevant primary
servers, often hidden ones not visible in the DNS, so even if the
proposal in 5.1 didn't have scaling problems, it only addresses half
the problem. So take it out.

R's,
John
