Stuart Cheshire has a draft describing how to populate a DNS zone using mDNS. It's not a bad idea, although I don't think the architecture document should mention it—there is at least one other alternative, and by mentioning solely mDNS we are making a decision that I don't think has general agreement. _______________________________________________ homenet mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/homenet
