It's not on the agenda on monday, isn't it?

I've re-read the discussion in January about version -00 and
apparently the questions that come to my mind are not shared by anyone
so here they are:

* the draft gives the impression that it authorizes a new
behaviour. But auth. servers have been sending extra data (IP address
of a MX target, for instance) for years.

* the draft says these extra data MUST (RFC2119-MUST) be validated
with DNSSEC. Does it mean that the current behaviour of sending extra
data for unsigned zones is now illegal?

* [followup off the previous question] should we instead say that
extra data should be sent (and should be accepted by clients) if and
only if (DNSSEC-validated _or_ in-bailiwick)? The current behaviors of
resolvers (accept extra data if in-bailiwick) does not seem to be
mentioned.

* the draft says "an authoritative name server operator can ensure
that the recursive server that the client is using has all the answers
in its cache". This is very dangerous because people may read it "we
now have a sure way to control what ends in the resolver's cache"
which is clearly not the case (the resolver may refuse some of the
extra data, the TTL of the extra data may mae it expire before the
"main" data, etc).
