[DNSOP] Publishing Information for Entities Identified by Domain Names

2020-01-22 Thread Martin Hoffmann
Dear DNSOP, for a project we’ve been working[0] we needed to discover the location of documents describing certain entities. We decided to pick domain names as the identifiers and then use the DNS for publication of those locations. It turned out there isn’t currently a mechanism to actually do th

[DNSOP] Review of draft-ieft-dnsop-rfc2845bis-03

Hi, the following is a review of draft-ieft-dnsop-rfc2845bis-03. As an implementer, let me say how much I appreciate this being a full revision on RFC 2845 instead of just an update for the issues discovered. I strongly believe that keeping the full specification in a single place by writing revis

[DNSOP] RFC 2845bis and HMAC-MD5

2019-03-14 Thread Martin Hoffmann
Hi, when looking over draft-ietf-dnsop-rfc2845bis I was hoping that it would relax the mandatory requirement for HMAC-MD5, but no such luck. Given that most protocols have either made MD5 optional or banned it outright, some modern crypto libraries have decided to drop it from their supported alg

[DNSOP] Additional uses of underscore labels (was: Another look - draft-ietf-dnsop-attrleaf-05.txt)

Hi, should probably do this more systematically, but I just stumbled over another underscore label in the ACME draft: draft-ietf-acme-acme defines _acme-challenge for TXT records. The draft seems to be in Last Call right now, so it might be an RFC before the registry is established. Kind regard

Hi, the following is a review of draft-ietf-dnsop-terminology-bis-08. It represents a reading of the document front-to-back as a sort of whirlwind introduction to the depths of DNS and assumes that such a reading is intended and there is a narrative. Even if that wasn’t the original intention, the
