I think dnsman is probably not ideal for.. reasons. If a new name is needed, DNSINT sounds fine. DNSEXT also seems fine. Or, here's a crazy idea, "DNS". :)

Okay, probably not.

This is a pretty good argument against.

> Also, the camel trope, in my view, is way overused at this point. While it is often used to usefully beat back bad ideas, it is often used more broadly to push back against useful changes too. And the DNS protocol certainly has many deficiencies and areas for improvement. I am not in favor of memorializing this trope in the name of a DNS working group.

Also a good argument. I liked the idea of CAMEL on first read, but I think the points raised against it are compelling.
