Yup, you are right - aggressively wasn't well defined. I've just submitted a new version with: "the resolver SHOULD use NSEC, NSEC3 and wildcard records aggressively." -> "the resolver SHOULD use NSEC, NSEC3 and wildcard records to synthesize answers as described in this document". It also addresses the other IESG comments (basically remove parens around a bit in the intro, and also explicitly ask the RFC Editor to remove the bits in square brackets ""Ed note: Text inside square brackets ([])"... W -- I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad idea in the first place. This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair of pants. ---maf _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
