The three choices above do not do the same thing, so if the goal is to pick one, I would back up and ask: Can we get some agreement on what problem needs to be solved? I suspect that a choice of one approach over the other reflects at least partially disagreement on what the actual problem is that folks think is being addressed. Thomas to unsubscribe send a message to namedroppers-request@ops.ietf.org with the word 'unsubscribe' in a single line as the message text body.
