Hi,

The only openly published standard for a policy implementing resolver
of which I am aware is that under the direction of Paul Vixie, formerly
of ISC.  That standard is Response Policy Zones (RPZ).

I believe that the most recent version is at:

https://kb.isc.org/getAttach/21/AA-00512/rpz.txt

However, one would be best to check with ISC to confirm that this is the latest.

Regards,

Good question, and no. "Policy-based" and "policy-implementing" are those kind 
of terms we hear bandied about in operator circles but not written about in 
RFCs because it is supposedly outside the purview of the IETF. If someone has a 
reasonable reference we can point to, that would be great.
