No, that's correct. But if the point of using a class is to create a

In that case, resolvers try and try again, which is even worse for the

I’m ok with anything that provides effective negative feedback. Dropping

Right. Cname does not cross classes.
In original DNS, class was incoherently sometimes an attribute of zone data and
sometimes a namespace selector. In modern DNS it is coherently always the
latter.

Delay is expensive for responders since it requires state. Steve's goal of
making some tld strings flaky so as to encourage developers to avoid DNS for
those names could be met statelessly. For example delegate them to localhost.

Avoiding collisions between DNS and non-DNS use of domain names is
probably important to us (to some degree that’s what we’re trying to
decide). But I have thought, and continue to think, that we make a

Perhaps. The Domain Name System is just that. A naming system for domains,
one of which is the Internet. Being lazy, and in the absence of significant
development in other
domains (save the CHAOS domain), our community conflates the DNS(IN) as the
entire DNS. Which is false. The DNS, class

Actually, there IS an escape method already defined. We just don’t use it much

It’s called “class”
There is no reason these alternate namespaces should sit in the IN class. they
could/should be in their
