I don't think that's true. We have a situation where SSAC specifically stated the domain should not be delegated in the root zone, it is a constraint that the ICANN Board codified in accepting SSAC's advice, and thus that is the constraint we have today. I have no insight into SSAC's deliberations but I think a reasonable take is that the prohibition was intended purely to provide assurance that name collisions would be avoided between private-use and labels that may be created inside an actual delegation from the root. A specialized delegation purely for a technical enablement reason (e.g. breaking the chain of trust) that is consistent with the intent may still be deemed consistent with the goal of SSAC's restriction. If that is the case I think superseding advice could be provided to clarify that aspect and adopted if there was a consensus that this made sense. kim _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
