I am not sure if I qualify as the Glorious AD mentioned above, but...

I think the QNAME minimization approach is something that should be
pursued.  The proposed charter for DPRIVE would put it as a follow-on
work item so that the focus can be on the client <-> iterative resolve
problem.

I could see one of three options for progressing the qname work...

1) Wait for the re-charter of DPRIVE
2) Ping Joel about getting it done in DNSOP
3) Ask for AD sponsorship

Regards,
Brian
