Thanks for this. I would like to clarify that the methodology and protocol elements are intended to be an exact match with draft-ietf-deleg. Any discrepancies will be addressed by the authors of draft-ietf-dnsop-delext to ensure alignment. The sole purpose of draft-ietf-dnsop-delext is to define and allocate a range of RR types, one of which will be assigned to the DELEG RR. One point to note is that we should avoid having two documents defining the same protocol elements in the long term. Guidance would be appreciated on how best to converge these into a single document, or alternatively, to clearly separate responsibilities. For instance, one document defining the protocol elements and another specifying the DELEG/DELEGPARAM RR types and their RDATA.
