Jim,

My answer (perhaps obvious given previous messages, but to be explicit):

On Apr 17, 2025, at 2:51 PM, Jim Reid <jim@rfc1035.com> wrote:

Centralization of specifications to properly develop/operate the DNS.

Since the IETF is deemed to have change control over the DNS, it means folks who are trying to develop/operate DNS implementations have one place to go to instead of trying to figure out through rumor, lore, and oral tradition what the rules are. 

(Note: I'm making a distinction between efforts like .internal that assume the use the DNS protocol from the various non-DNS efforts like GNS)
