Apologies for taking so long to get this out. Despite the delay, I still believe that this document represents a better starting point for the discussion of the special-use name problem.
I believe that the right way to approach this problem is to try to enumerate, without judgment, all of the problems that people are aware of that are not problems with potential solutions. Having done so, we can then enumerate, again without judgement, the potential solutions to each problem, which will likely be mutually contradictory. Having done _that_, then I think we will be in a position to make a fully informed decision from the set of alternatives that we have identified, based on the end result that we want to achieve or avoid. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <[email protected]> Date: Wed, Jun 29, 2016 at 7:15 PM Subject: I-D Action: draft-tldr-sutld-ps-01.txt To: [email protected] A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
