The thing that trips me up implementing DNS without intimate knowledge of the assorted RFCs isn't the amount of them -- 2000 pages isn't all that bad if you come from SIP. Rather, it is that important details are hidden all over the document base, often in unexpected places. As an example, the SOA minumum field is (re)defined in RFC 2308 which nominally talks about negative caching, something I'd probably ignore if I implement a simple authoritative server. So, I'll step on that mine: What really would help new implementers is a 1034bis. Kind regards, Martin
