Hello,

I've read the draft and it's a nice idea. I have a couple of questions/remarks though.

* Base32 should be supported in the rdata (for NSEC3).
* There probably should be an rdata type called BitMap (for NSEC/NSEC3).
* NSEC3 has a salt length which isn't used in the text representation of the
  record. How is this handled?
* The HIP record also has fields not used in the text representation: "PK length
  field".
* The HIP record ends with an array of domain names. How should that be encoded?
  Same holds true for TXT records.
* The HIP contains a base64 field that can not contain spaces in the
  presentation format (unlike all other b64 fields in other RRs). How to deal
  with that?
* The IPSECKEY RR uses some internal subtyping: if "gatewaytype" is 0 there is no
  gateway. If it is 1 or 2 its an IP address and if its 3 the gateway is a
  domain name. How to encode that?

Kind regards,
