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)

> 6 - Performance: derive a recommended way to establish performance 
> requirements and/or measurement of a server "constellation."  Include 
> consideration of anycast clouds, etc.

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.
