Russ,
what is different between the special use domain name
10.in-addr.arpa name being published in the in-arpa.arpa zone and
the special use domain name (to be) homenet being published in the
root zone.
* They are BOTH published/expected to be published in the parent zone.
* They BOTH do not expect lookups except of DS records at that name.
* Both want to break chain of trust from the root zone at the name.
>From a operational point of view there is zero difference, yet you
say one should be published and one shouldn't.
What is you technical reasoning behind this.
Nowhere does making a name special use preclude publishing it?
There are other special use names that really should also be in the
registry because they are baked into software.
in-addr.arpa is special use because that is the name we use to
construct IPv4 address to name lookups.
ip6.arpa is special use because that is the name we use to construct
IPv6 address to name lookups.
Both of these should be is the special use domain registry.
