Yes, please. The discussion on this list so far has been more about policy, not about DNS operations. That is, there has been very little discussion of the operational aspects of RFC 6761 in the new proposals, just whether the naming policy is being followed. Therefore, separating this out from the rest of the discussion in Dallas seems like a good way to get those most interested in the topic in one place at one time.
