The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Chain Query requests in DNS' (draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-chain-query-07.txt) as Experimental RFC This document is the product of the Domain Name System Operations Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Benoit Claise and Joel Jaeggli. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-chain-query/ Technical Summary This document was heavily reviewed, and discussed by the Working Group. There had been a few operational issues brought up that were resolved. During the WGLC, there was an argument from one person that this could be solved using a different mechanism. It was pointed out that the other mechanism has never been attempted or implemented. It is worth reading for a sense of the discussion that started here: https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/dnsop/YAOKdXMZe4iMt2HV0CT-cAtjVKQ The WG is behind this document. There are some reviews from the Apps Area that helped clean up the document. As this is experimental, there are current attempts to implement this. As operational knowledge becomes available, this document will move toward Proposed Standard. Working Group Summary This document was heavily reviewed, and discussed by the Working Group.
