Re: [DNSOP] New draft for helping browsers use the DoH server associated with a resolver

Hi Paul,

Just trying to read this draft in detail and I find section 3 a bit 
confusing. You use terms such as client and resolver but at times it is 
not clear if you are referring to the OS stub, a third party stub, 
caching resolver, application or browser. Maybe using terms from your 
terminology draft would help.

Thanks
John
