COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I agree with the Discusses and Comments on this document - this simply isn't
implementable as described.

My main reason for abstaining is something else though. This document has been
worked on for almost ten years. While in the beginning, we might have expected
or at least hoped that a solution in the shape that this document tries to
describe would see adoption, it's become very clear that dynamic DNS services
as described in Section 4 have won out here. These services are far from
perfect, but at least some of the limitations in Section 4 have been addressed,
and others are arguably a feature and not a limitation.
