Greetings again. Some of the people in the recent thread about "dynamic 
discovery of secure resolvers" have expressed an interest in something that was 
mentioned at the DRIU BoF in Montréal: they want their browser to use a DoH 
server that is related to the DNS resolver that their OS is already using. I 
don't think DHCP can help with that problem (I could be wrong), but I do think 
that resolver operators should be able to tell browsers the DoH resolvers that 
they would want their customers to be using.

Please see the draft below. If folks like it, I can continue to work on it. Or, 
if you like the use case but have a better technical solution, that would be 
great too. I wanted to bring it to this list before taking it to the DOH WG 
because it really is an operational issue, not all that related to the DoH 
protocol.

Thoughts?

Title : Associating a DoH Server with a Resolver 
Author : Paul Hoffman 
Filename : draft-hoffman-resolver-associated-doh-00.txt 
Pages : 8 
Date : 2018-08-23 

Abstract: 
Some clients will want to know if there are one or more DoH servers 
associated with the DNS recursive resolver that the client is already 
using. This document describes a protocol for a resolver to tell a 
client what its associated DoH servers are.
