This is a really good point. I think there does need to be a .ALT registry in order for .ALT to be able to address anything other than experimental uses. And I think this would actually be a good thing. Experimental uses could either come under .EXP (I will probably get flamed for that, but please don't take it too seriously) or .EXP.ALT. Of course, if we had a registry for .ALT, I suppose there would be a land rush on it, but if we don't have one I think that will be even worse. _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
