Alan, I'm happy to see a new draft. > As always, comments/suggetions welcomed. Here are some initial comments: In section 3.7.1 it says: "Template-Name: SITEINFO", which I assume should be "Template-Type". In section 3.7.1 the the description mentions "Host-Name" and "Alias", but the example uses "Name" and "Preferred-Name". In 3.8.1 it is mentioned that handles are assumed to be unique. It would be useful to specify in which domain they need to be unique: in the same multi-record file, on the same server, world-wide? I'm now using my full email address as a handle, which is pretty unique world-wide, but it is a bit weird. There seems to be a slight inconsistency in the word "timezone"; it is spelt as one word in some places, and as two in other places. Things I'd like to see in the draft: - a described way for multi-lateral extension of the templates e.g. "X-favourite-fruit: banana" this would make it easier to extend the templates. - a way to insert comments, for information to the index maintainer only. e.g. "# this service should be checked next time..." Would these be useful additions? -- Martijn __________ Internet: m.koster@nexor.co.uk X-400: C=GB; A= ; P=Nexor; O=Nexor; S=koster; I=M X-500: c=GB@o=NEXOR Ltd@cn=Martijn Koster WWW: http://web.nexor.co.uk/mak/mak.html
