And yet writing long emails arguing that we *shouldn't* spend time on this issue is worth the effort? It's the constitutional charge of the Technical Committee to make a ruling on this question that's been put before us. We have a poor enough success rate of following through on TC bugs without getting into side discussions about the "worth" of a question. Can we perhaps focus on the technical details here? > Service administrators (Debian systems included) will need to > stop using DNS RR right now, because it won't work with too many systems > anymore.

I think it shows a poor attitude on your part that you seem to consider the Technical Committee fulfilling its constitutional duties a form of "harrassment". -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
