All,
     I want to start working through the details of what Stephen is
proposing below; beginning to do operational experiments to determine
which approach, or approaches, may be viable in the long term. To carry
out such experiments, I believe we need the following:

1. A stable I-D for an approach to providing privacy between recursive
resolvers and authoritative servers,

2. An implementation of the stable I-D in a recursive resolver and in an
authoritative server implementation,

3. At least one authoritative server operator willing to deploy the
experimental implementation,

4. At least one recursive resolver operator willing to deploy the
experimental implementation,

5. An agreed upon set of metrics to assess the operational behavior of
the approach,

Is there a major item missing from the list above? Other aspects of
carrying out such an experiment?

Are there any volunteers to start working on details of such an experiment?

Regards,
Brian
