there is a fairly extensive history of multicast DNS... in 1998/1999, along w/ this draft: Woodcock, B., Manning, B., "Multicast Domain Name Service", draft-manning-dnsext-mdns-02.txt, August 2000. Revied twice now Expired. was this one: Vixie, P., Manning, B., "Supporting unicast replies to multicast queries in the DNS", draft-manning-opcode-discover-01.txt, First submitted as an ID July 2000 - Active With this abstract. 0. Abstract: The QUERY opcode in the DNS is designed for unicast. With the development of multicast capabilities in the DNS, it is desireable to have a more robust opcode for server interactions since a single request may result in replies from multiple responders. So DISCOVER is defined to deal with replies from multiple responders. As such, this document extend the core DNS specifications to allow clients to have a method for coping with replies from multiple responders. Use of this new opcode may facilitate DNS operations in modern networking topologies. A prototype of the DISCOVER opcode was developed as part of the TBDS project, funded under DARPA grant F30602-99-1-0523. ... so multicast DNS has been around, with various implementations over the years. the Apple mDNS spec is not an IETF work product, in part because the IETF rejected it. Same w/ the DARPA mDNS work I did six years ago. I believe that Bernard and his team are where they are because they had the patience and money to wait out a multi year IETF standardization effort. I ran out of money, Apple wanted to ship solutions. (i think)... the Apple specs are available as are the mDNS specs. neither is proprietary. that said, i think it is reasonable for the IETF to provide its imprinture on LLMNR as an IETF standards track activitiy for naming on a link-local environment. The work has not violated the processes, has met all the IETF criteria and should proceed. Pretty much a clear case of a protocol designed by committee. And its not like anyone will use it of course. Even Microsoft appears to have abandon it. --bill On Aug 25, 2005, at 18:53, Stuart Cheshire wrote: >> It is not typical for us to make statements in our standards >> regarding what proprietary mechanisms our standards are or are not >> intended to compete with, nor do we typically include statements that >> compare the features of our standards to proprietary protocols. > > Please stop calling it "proprietary".
