So an E.164 of '+16035551212' becomes the domain name '2.1.2.1.5.5.5.3.0.6.1.cid.arpa'. The authorization-checking topic that is driving this list needs to distinguish between the basic semantics of what is being done -- who are the actors, what are their roles and authorities, what are their interactions -- from the low-level mechanics -- such as syntactic encoding form -- that are used to permit the 'interesting' stuff. One thing that seems to be a continuing distraction is "pure" E.164 number vs. domain name. As discussed in this venue, to domain name form is a syntactic encoding. On its own, it's no more interesting or terrible than any other encoding form. It makes sense to consider here only to the extent that the operational platform using it makes sense. The significant parts of determining whether a platform makes sense to consider are the many aspects of its operational details, ranging from beneficial history -- deployed and well-used -- to its administrative alignment with what is needed. > The authority for .cid.arpa is the ITU, and they delegate the country-codes within it to the national number admins for each country (ie, exactly what they do for E.164 numbers). At that point each nation decides what they want to do, whether to have their whole country-code number tree under one admin authority, or to have it split up. > > Oh, and this would all use DNSSEC, which might mean we don't even need to store full certs in this tree, but can just store public keys. (because the DNSSEC info is the same as would be in the certs) Or possibly not. DNSSec is still only partially deployed, and the use being discussed here is probably a re-purposing of its functionality. My own guess is that DNSSec makes sense for providing an important enhancement to reassurances about the operational platform, but that it's not essential to the core semantics. But of course, that's just my opinion... d/ -- Dave Crocker Brandenburg InternetWorking bbiw.net
