Re: [dnsext] Some thoughts on the updated aliasing draft

 From my impression in ICANN meeting in SF, people with IDN variant 
issues want IETF give a perfect solution or give a answer if having 
solution or not, but actually even IETF give solution, it's impossible 
to solve issues that ICANN people concerns, to develop the standard and 
deploy the software is a very long term solution.

For this draft, we try to define the problem statement, but how to 
solve, and if we should solve it with adding new RR, is to be discussed.
