The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Domain Name System (DNS) IANA Considerations ' <draft-ietf-dnsext-2929bis-07.txt> as a BCP This document is the product of the DNS Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Mark Townsley and Jari Arkko. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsext-2929bis-07.txt - Technical Summary The document updates rules for how certain DNS parameter values are allocated. In most cases this is a relaxation of the existing rules. The document is giving guidance to IANA on policies for allocation. The DNS community wants to simplify the rules for allocation of new RR types, and this document combined with the rules in RFC3597 makes this possible. For RR types that fit within the rules a simple template and review by WG and a designated expert is the new process. Most other changes from RFC2929 are insignificant. - Working Group Summary There is a broad consensus that this document is an improvement over its predecessor. - Protocol Quality This is document about IETF/IANA process so there are no implementations. The working group and sponsoring AD are running an experiment of the new RR type process concurrently with the publication request. see: http://psg.com/lists/namedroppers/namedroppers.2006/msg01601.html http://psg.com/lists/namedroppers/namedroppers.2006/msg01603.html http://psg.com/lists/namedroppers/namedroppers.2007/msg00068.html http://psg.com/lists/namedroppers/namedroppers.2007/msg00070.html _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
