In the Internet architecture the DNS servers/resolvers use a standard port
number. Thus it seems like the PacketCable architecture doesn't conform
to the Internet architecture. 

This sure looks odd.

Are we (the WG and the IETF) reviewing this draft supposed to blindly agree
with the packetcable architecture? Or are we supposed to review that
architecture first?

Confused
