+1 to at least calling out stub resolvers, but Andrew's non-list formulation is better.

I agree that including stub-resolvers and other DNS-related software sounds like a good idea.

There were long threads about DNSSEC handling in stub-resolvers on dane-list [0] but dnsop seems like a better place to discuss this matter.

Note that this discussion is not over so we can move it to dnsop if dnsop agrees.

The wording in Item #1 is essentially intact from the current charter. So it could take some updating. We can change that sentence to say:

    This will include root zone name servers, TLD name servers, or any
    other resolver or server functioning as part of the global DNS.

That would address the lack of stub resolvers, but also allow the flexibility for anything we may fail to specifically mention.
