We have .example and example.* for documentation, yet the XMPP documentation uses shakespeare.lit (I don't think .lit matches any SUN or any entry in any DNS-related RFC.) FWIW, wikipedia sends .lit to some Microsoft file extension. One cannot say that Peter St Andre is ignorant of IETF processes. Use of *example* in documentation and .invalid in free software is a good sign that developers are ready to follow suit and respect the norms. == hk _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
