I'm happy to see progress being made on this front. Some comments: *Section 3.1*
This section calls for limiting the TTL of cached address records to the lesser of the ANAME TTL and the TTL of the retrieved address records, but section 3 requires servers to follow chained responses. Are the TTLs of intermediate records in a chain supposed to be ignored? What is the expected behavior when the target record set is empty, or bogus, or when resolution fails? *Section 3.2* The wording of this section could use some improvement. It seems to prohibit secondary servers from resolving ANAME targets when they are present at the same domain as address types... do I understand correctly? Are such address records still subject to TTL decrementing (presumably starting at the time of zone transfer)? And when only a single address type is present (e.g., just ANAME and A), does that still prevent resolution of the ANAME target for the other type? *Section 3.3* Although labeled "DNSSEC signing", this section also contains more general specification (e.g., "the master server MUST respect the TTLs of the address records" and "TTLs [of address records in a secondary server] will count down"). It is also mute on the use of DNSSEC for resolving ANAME target records, but that should probably be covered somewhere.
