        Title           : Domain Names, A Case for Clarifying

Abstract:
   Is the concept of Domain Names owned by the DNS protocol or does the
   DNS protocol exist to support the Domain Names concept?  This
   question has become pertinent in light of proposals to use Domain
   Names in protocols in ways incompatible with the DNS protocol and the
   operational environment built to runthe protocol.  This document
   looks first at the early record in the RFC series and then expands to
   survey how Domain Names are used in protocols and reaches the
   conclusion that Domain Names are independent of the DNS, and further,
   that there might be a need to clarify the definition of Domain Names
   to reinforce that notion.
