Was not aware about this draft, thanks for the pointer. I think this could
be the base for what I mentioned in my last reply to Michael on relying
on only-ALTO documents to make the specification. I still think that a
single GET query sounds simpler than a direct access to the DNS interface,
as well as the trust considerations are applicable.

What would you think of leaving the current discovery document as it is
now and exploring the possibility of aligning HTTPS discovery with this
ALTO4ALTO idea?

Be goode,
