The IESG has received a request from the Extensions for Scalable DNS Service Discovery WG (dnssd) to consider the following document: - 'On Interoperation of Labels Among Conventional DNS and Other Resolution Systems' <draft-ietf-dnssd-mdns-dns-interop-04.txt> as Informational RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2017-04-13. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Despite its name, DNS-Based Service Discovery can use naming systems other than the Domain Name System when looking for services. Moreover, when it uses the DNS, DNS-Based Service Discovery uses the full capability of DNS, rather than using a subset of available octets. In order for DNS-SD to be used effectively in environments where multiple different name systems and conventions for their operation are in use, it is important to attend to differences in the underlying technology and operational environment. This memo presents an outline of the requirements for selection of labels for conventional DNS and other resolution systems when they are expected to interoperate in this manner. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnssd-mdns-dns-interop/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnssd-mdns-dns-interop/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
