Greetings again. As you can see, Warren and I just updated the draft to reflect 
the WG discussion at IETF 115 and on the list after that. At IETF 115, the WG 
chairs said that they might move this to a second WG Last Call soon.

In the discussion, there was lots of active disagreement about reducing traffic 
to the root servers, particularly around what it would mean for recursive 
resolvers filtering for .alt. One such proposal that came up was scrapping this 
draft and moving to AS112, but there was little interest and some strong 
pushback.

Thus, we did not include any proposed way to do this in the new draft, although 
we did make a strong push towards methods resolvers could use that would reduce 
root queries for names ending not only in .alt, but all other non-existent TLDs.
