[DNSOP] Bi-weekly reminder of the documents for the WG

[Paul Hoffman]

Greetings again. This is a reminder that the documents that this WG is working 
on, and may or may not be working on in the future, is at
  https://svn.tools.ietf.org/svn/wg/dnsop/doclist.html
It helps the WG chairs to know which documents have enough people willing to 
review them to move them forwards. If you would like to volunteer to be a 
reviewer for any of the documents, please let me know so I can list you.

In the past two weeks, a few additional people have volunteered to review some 
of the documents, and a *lot* of people volunteered to review 
draft-bortzmeyer-dns-qname-minimisation. It would be grand if more people would 
offer to review other documents as well. Also, the documents that are going to 
be part of the new DPRIVE WG were removed from the list.

If you want to add a document to the list, contact the WG chairs.

[DNSOP] Fwd: WG Action: Formed DNS PRIVate Exchange (dprive)

[Paul Hoffman]

Of interest to this WG, because some of the items that were previously 
discussed for DNSOP are now in the new WG.

> Charter:
> 
> The DNS PRIVate Exchange (DPRIVE) Working Group develops mechanisms to
> provide confidentiality to DNS transactions, to address concerns
> surrounding pervasive monitoring (RFC 7258).
> 
> 
> The set of DNS requests that an individual makes can provide an
> attacker with a large amount of information about that individual.
> DPRIVE aims to deprive the attacker of this information. (The IETF
> defines pervasive monitoring as an attack [RFC7258])
> 
> 
> The primary focus of this Working Group is to develop mechanisms that
> provide confidentiality between DNS Clients and Iterative Resolvers,
> but it may also later consider mechanisms that provide confidentiality
> between Iterative Resolvers and Authoritative Servers, or provide
> end-to-end confidentiality of DNS transactions. Some of the results of
> this working group may be experimental. The Working Group will also
> develop an evaluation document to provide methods for measuring the
> performance against pervasive monitoring; and how well the goal is met.
> The Working Group will also develop a document providing example
> assessments for common use cases.
> 
> 
> DPRIVE is chartered to work on mechanisms that add confidentiality to
> the DNS. While it may be tempting to solve other DNS issues while
> adding confidentiality, DPRIVE is not the working group to do this.
> DPRIVE will not work on any integrity-only mechanisms.
> 
> 
> Examples of the sorts of risks that DPRIVE will address can be found
> in [draft-bortzmeyer-dnsop-dns-privacy], and include both passive
> wiretapping and more active attacks, such as MITM attacks. DPRIVE will
> address risks to end-users' privacy (for example, which websites an
> end user is accessing).
> 
> 
> 
> Some of the main design goals (in no particular order) are:
> 
> 
> - Provide confidentiality to DNS transactions (for the querier).
> 
> 
> - Maintain backwards compatibility with legacy DNS implementations.
> 
> 
> - Require minimal application-level changes.
> 
> 
> - Require minimal additional configuration or effort from applications or
> users
> 
> Milestones:
>  Dec 2014 - WG LC on an problem statement document
>  Mar 2015 - WG selects one or more primary protocol directions
>  Jul 2015 - WG LC on primary protocol directions
