Ed Lewis did a similar remark. The idea is to have one short word for "something which is a violation of the RFC". Any idea for a better word, less legally loaded? > Their is also a (small) performance hit for DANE aware applications > where the owner name often has multiple labels.

First, we should remember (it is not crystal-clear in the current draft) that qname m12n is an unilateral change (it does not change the protocol) so resolver implementers may do it in slightly different ways. That being said, not doing minimisation for some qtypes seem to be an overoptimisation, not worth the complexity. Also, OPENPGPKEY is a bad example because it is a case where there is PII even after the second label so Qname m12n is *more* important for this type. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
