The IESG has approved the following document: - 'DNS Query Name Minimisation to Improve Privacy' (draft-ietf-dnsop-rfc7816bis-11.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document is the product of the Domain Name System Operations Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Warren Kumari and Robert Wilton. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-rfc7816bis/ Technical Summary This document describes a technique called "QNAME minimisation" to improve DNS privacy, where the DNS resolver no longer always sends the full original QNAME and original QTYPE to the upstream name server. This document obsoletes RFC 7816. Working Group Summary Working group consensus was strong; the document is describing a well known and deployed mechanism. After IETF LC, there was a concern raised that a comment may have been missed. The WG was asked to specifically consider and discuss this point (https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/dnsop/6P6MS881ZdHnbtnwP7q8Q74_pw8/) After discussions, I determined that there was not sufficient consensus to make the change. Document Quality RFC7816 was published as Experimental - after significant deployment experience, data-collection and analysis, etc., we are obsoleting 7816, and publishing this new, Standards Track document.
