Technical Summary

The Special-Use Domain Names IANA registry policy defined in RFC 6761
has been shown through experience to present unanticipated
challenges. This memo presents a list, intended to be comprehensive,
of the problems that have been identified. In addition it reviews
the history of Domain Names and summarizes current IETF publications
and some publications from other organizations relating to Special-
Use Domain Names.

Working Group Summary
This document was the result of a decision in DNSOP to attempt to characterize the
problems we actually face with special use names before attempting to analyze any of
several proposals and contending beliefs about how to resolve them. The document has
been a considerable time in the making but has WG consensus as a list of the relevant
issues and challenges. As such, it can reasonably be the basis for future work in this area,
whether it's within scope/charter for DNSOP or not.

Document Quality

The document summarizes many discussions and documents across
DNSOP, the wider IETF, and other concerned communities to date.
