It appears that AFSDB DNS records could well be used for AFS.
I plan to add these records to our chunk of DNS space in readiness
and for completeness.
Perhaps, if other sites did likewise, it would finesse & facilitate
the transition to a (future) version of AFS that used them?
Am I right in thinking that these records would be used instead of
CellServDB (and so fix the problem of keeping CellServDB current)?
Using them, would you then have the DFS "problem" of not seeing
cells under /... (until you access a cell)?
Surely, fixing the CellServDB synchronisation issue at one fell swoop
is something fairly important to do?
