Hi all, A bit late to chime in, but maybe still a useful and relevant contribution to the discussion. > On 16 Mar 2017, at 21:07, Stuart Cheshire <cheshire@apple.com> wrote: > > On 13 Mar 2017, at 05:49, Philip Homburg <pch-v6ops-6@u-1.phicoh.com> wrote: > >> In my opinion, there is no justification for declaring a single threaded C application that uses getaddrinfo non-compliant. >> >> So this draft doesn't address my concerns.

(You’re not forced to follow that guidance, and you don’t have to if you don’t want to.) Thanks, I can second this as one of the partners in the getdns API project [1]. First I like to mention that getdns API provides a modern *asynchronous* DNS API. And although the getdns API is not a standard, the design process of the getdns API specification [2] has similarities with a standardisation process. In the specification [2] you can also read what the design considerations were. Talking with a handful of application developers about the requirements of a modern API, a first version of the API was published. Public feedback was provided (during presentations, email list, etc.) and incorporated, and implementers of the API also contributed feedback and improvements. The goals and results of the getdns API and library are similar to what Stuart mentioned above: the API (hopefully) provides a means to write a good application, i.e. using a high-level DNS resolution API with much functionality and good user experience. — Benno [1] https://getdnsapi.net [2] https://getdnsapi.net/documentation/spec/ -- Benno J.
