Re: [DNSOP] Alternative Special-Use TLD problem statement draft

Paul, draft-adpkja-dnsop-special-names-problem document is not a working
group document.   The working group can adopt it or not as the working
group chooses.   The same is true of the document I have offered.

So to answer a slightly different question than the one you asked, what I
am proposing is that the working group adopt the tldr document, likely with
changes, rather than adopting the adpkja document, which I think would take
much more work to get into shape.   The entire reason that I started the
tldr document is that I felt that the adpkja document not only didn't
accurately describe the problem, but contained much more text describing
some authors' beliefs about what the solutions should be than text
describing what the problem is.   I also felt that the scope of the adpkja
document was too narrow--it mostly talks about problems with 6761, without
really talking about the greater context of those problems.
