I refer to any past, present or future version of the charter that departs from 
the assumption that the DNS is the right protocol to address a set of discrete 
problems that includes the candidate drafts of the original E2MD BoF. As I read 
the version you point to below, for example, it does suggest that the overlap 
dialing optimization requirement should be addressed with a DNS-based solution. 
I think it remains unclear whether a DNS-based proposal is the optimal way to 
address overlap dialing.

Which E2MD charter do you refer to in this part of your email?
Is it the one we prepared for Maastricht (IETF-78) as publised on:

   http://trac.tools.ietf.org/bof/e2md/trac/wiki/ProposedCharter

or some older version or even both? May I ask you clarify this.

cheers,
  Bernie
