i wasn't reading this thread at all since i thought it was about discovering policy, like the subject says. horror of horrors, it's about dns internals, which means the thread is not only mislabelled, but also off-topic. i think it could go to dnsop@ietf.org, namedroppers@ops.ietf.org, or perhaps even dns-operations@lists.oarci.net. but it's a long way from being something related to routers, and i think it should stop here. dotis@mail-abuse.org (Douglas Otis) writes:

If you have applications which don't honour SRV's "." processing rules report the bug.
Even Paul Vixie, the author, will likely agree the RFC has the "bug".
i'm only one author, but in any case i ain't sayin', since this is nanog, and my only purpose in joining this thread is to say "enough already!" if you want to know what i think about SRV's "." rules, ask me in some forum where it's on-topic. -- Paul Vixie
