at the risk of splitting hairs, the three different proposals did not all strive to change the protocol. Also, this started out from the observation that ANY queries might be routinely used where they probably shouldn't. Short of deprectaing QTYPE=* altogether, giving guidance to application programmers when and (most likely mostly) when not to use ANY might still be a good thing. QCLASS=* or ANY is already recommended against in RFC 1123, section 6.1.2.2 and penalized by RFC 1034, section 3.7.1 (must not set AA). -Peter _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
