Abstract:
Sometimes, a DNS name is known to be in use in the wild even though
it was never properly delegated. This situation appears
particularly, but not only, true in certain domains near the root of
the tree: people have independently used those non-existent top-level
domains as private namespaces. If those names are to be delegated in
the public DNS, prudence demands that collisions between the private
uses and the public use be minimized. At the same time, the public
use should not be prohibited on the grounds of what is, after all,
"hijacking" of a name space. We outline a procedure to minimize harm
while permitting delegation to proceed.
