Matt Crawford noted that missing from questions is, we focus on
"today", not if it is needed in future. E.g., changes in routing
system might need A6.
Not "changes in routing system" but "coupling of DNS prefix delegation
to routing system's idea of prefix delegation."
> Consensus building
Here's the problem. There was no attempt at consenus *building* after
the discussion, only a quick measurement of opinions at that point.
Given that a state of consensus did not already exist at this point

It is my possibly-mistaken recollection that only the first two
question were asked twice, becaused of a long interval of discussion
after the second. It seems to be everyone's recollection that the
fourth alternative got distinctly less volume than any of the other
three, yet these minutes state it otherwise.
> Therefore, DNAME for bit label use is limited to experimental use.
Er, I don't think there was any coupling of DNAME and bit-string
labels in the question, so I think you mean to say "bit labels under
the reverse tree" or something of that sort.
> It was sense of the room that the hums indicated ..
There was no meta-question asked about what the hums indicated.
Maybe you mean to say "The sense of the room, as measured by hums, was...".
But this raises the question of what does this phrase "sense of the
room" mean? Further own your minutes you make the leap to
> Summary of of meeting consensus to be verified on mailing lists:
The sole contentious point seemed to be the four-pronged AAAA vs A6
question, and the aggregated (hum) mass of opinion did not show
consensus by any accepted definition of the word, nor even rough
consensus by most reckonings.
> - AAAA stays on standards track in DNSEXT,
> - A6 moved to experimental by DNSEXT
I do not believe there was rough consensus on these points. There was
a plurality in favor of this option. It's impossible to say whether it
was a majority, but it was clearly not an overwhelming majority.
> - Bitlabels moved to experimental by DNSEXT
There was rough consensus on this.
> - DNAME standardization is out scope.
I do not recall this question having been asked of the room.
