   A number of Internet applications rely on the Domain Name System
   (DNS) to support their operations.  Many applications use the DNS to
   locate services for a domain.  For example, some applications
   transform identifiers other than domain names into formats that the
   DNS can process and then fetch application data or service location
   from the DNS.  Proposals to incorporate more sophisticated
   application behavior into the DNS, however, have raised questions
   about the applicability and extensibility of the DNS.  This document
   explores the architectural consequences of using the DNS for storing
   and retrieving certain application features, and provides guidance to
   future application designers as to the sorts of ways that application
   can make use of the DNS.
