i'm +1 with this interpretation. not just because implementations do not all do the same thing in the presence of this data pattern, but because in recent decades we've adopted a "mount point semantics" view of dns delegations. this should be written down somewhere, because the rfc 1034 rules about "scan down the tree looking for a delegation" logic does not mesh well with the "closest enclosure" logic that most implementations actually follow. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
