given the nature of the TXT RR, in particular the RDATA field, I presume it is the path of prudence to set the barrier to registration in this new IANA registry to be -VERY- low. Or is the intent to create a two class system, registered and unregistered types? /bill On 30August2013Friday, at

The draft does not assure that existing usages are compatible with each other. Still, the draft may assure new usages compatible with each other. However, people who want to have new (sub)types for the new usages should better simply request new RRTYPEs. If we need subtypes because 16bit RRTYPE

This is helpful feedback. We are looking at how the listing of the registries is used by the community. There have been suggestions of adding keywords to help when people search for registries. As the list of registries grows, we want to make sure it is useful and that registries can easily be

Hi. I'm going to comment very sparsely on responses to this draft, especially those that slide off into issues that seem basically irrelevant to the registry and the motivation for its creation. My primary reason is that I don't want to burden the IETF list with a back-and-forth exchange,
