Bill, whatever your views on the accountability or otherwise of the  
DNS Directorate, the topic is surely orthogonal to what happens to  
dnsext?

I would presume the DNS Directorate (fine fellows that they are) are  
accountable by the wise words of advice given to the ADs and WGs  
whenever they need them. That said, it should be easier to find the  
Directorates' home page on the IETF web site. [Perhaps a link on the  
left hand-side, just like there is for WGs, IESG and so on.] It seems  
this can only be found by feeding "Directorate" into the search box in  
the top corner of www.ietf.org.
