the social contract for code point assignment should be openness and transparency. that would mean nonproprietary systems documented in an RFC. the judgement connoted by that RFC would not be recommendation but rather clarity. the explicit recommendation should be "avoid using this for your own signatures but be aware that some signatures will use this and you would benefit from being able to validate those." -- Paul Vixie _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
