Aren't we trying to influence the future rather than document the
past?

We need a name-based service discovery solution. That's also a
requirement emerging from 6renum. I think we should decide what's
the best recommendation; it may end up being DNS-based, but this
is what SLP was designed for, so IMHO it should be considered.

This is clearly *not* what SNMP was designed for.
