Hi,

thanks Tony for pointing that out...

I am not so sure about the motivations, but I see this draft as dangerous
precedent.  Unified DNS tree was and is an important building block of the
Internet and standardizing DNS-split would mean the end of the Internet
as we know it.

Exactly.  And then it would be just a mess - every country would create it's own Internet.

+1

not that I promote the usage of existing tools for Internet censorship,
but at least those are just tools, and not the justification to split
the Internet.

Last, but not least, we (IETF) should produce technical documents
and not political.  This is quite nice example of a document which
(in my view) puts priorities of national states over the openness
and overall compatibility of the Internet.
