Or for unsensible > people, we can at least be aware of what they do. in one sense there is a registry but in another sense there are registries for each RR type whose applications will use underscored names for extended subtyping. what this means is, if someone sees _TCP in use for some rr type, and they needed something like this for their own new rr type, they should be encouraged to either use _TCP if they find it's the best fit, or use something else if they find that a best fit. they should not worry either away about either reusing, or not reusing, an existing name. so while i agree that having a set of per-type registries will inform future application developers, my expected use case is the opposite of what you said here. it's vital that the relevant technical constraint be restated at every level of underscore documentation, and that is, there is no relationship other than coincidence between a given _LABEL used by one rr type and that same label used by some other rr type. i know that we think of names having rrsets, and they do; however, in practical terms of whether conflicts will arise, we can in this case think of an rrset having its own parent _LABEL. dave may profit by referring to the "let's all stop returning ANY results" draft, since it's only if ANY actually worked, that we would see performance problems from _LABEL reuse across types. but note, even in that performance-degrading situation, there would be no *conflicts*, only coincidences. -- P Vixie
