I am told that draft has been revved again in response to discussion on
the list.
http://www.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-jabley-dnsext-eui48-eui64-rrtypes-05
Please direct your attention to the security considerations section. If
it turns out that informational documentation of the two RR-Type
assignments remains controversial, I will likely withdraw my sponsorship
of this draft.
Thanks

The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider
the following document:
- 'Resource Records for EUI-48 and EUI-64 Addresses in the DNS'
<draft-jabley-dnsext-eui48-eui64-rrtypes-03.txt> as Proposed Standard
I would direct the attention of the commentors to draft 04
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-jabley-dnsext-eui48-eui64-rrtypes-04.txt
Which addresses concerns expressed in IETF last call over the intended
status.
It also incorporates edits proposed by John Klensin in his review.
Notes: from the author:
- changed intended status to informational
- incorporation of John's suggestions in the Terminology section, to
indicate that we're using 2119 keywords even though this is not a
standards track document
- added a couple of sentences to the security considerations sections
to underscore the fact that this document specifies optional
mechanisms that people might well not use if privacy considerations
dictate otherwise
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@xxxxxxxx mailing lists by 2013-06-17. Exceptionally, comments
may be
sent to iesg@xxxxxxxx instead. In either case, please retain the

Abstract
48-bit Extended Unique Identifiers (EUI-48) and 64-bit Extended
Unique Identifiers (EUI-64) are address formats specified by the
IEEE
for use in various layer-2 networks, e.g. ethernet.
This document defines two new DNS resource record types, EUI48 and
EUI64, for encoding ethernet addresses in the DNS.
