Re: [dnssd] [IoT-DIR] Review of draft-ietf-dnssd-mdns-dns-interop-04

[Ines Robles <[e-mail]>]

Hi Tim,

We (Peter van der Stok and me ) are willing to present it.

How much time would we have? We might need 10 min, but we can adapt it to
less time though, since the agenda is already full.

Thank you,

Peter and Ines.
