that's covered in the general introductory text - and as discussed in Dallas
we'd need some terminology clarification to start with. I'd like to hear
more opinions on whether we should explicitly have a "high level work package"
like this:
5) {numbers likely to change}
develop and review guidelines for resolver (stub and full) behaviour,
including search path and timing issues as well as query strategies.
(A document actually saying that 'recursive servers' ==
'iterative resolvers' SHOULD issue queries with RD==0 only would fall
into this basket, as would probably anything around RFC1535bis)

> requirements and/or measurement of a server "constellation." Include

6) establish terminology and methodology for performance measurements
of servers, resolvers or the service as such.
('CNNP' comes to mind)

Text change suggestions are welcome. Thanks, Ed.
