Really, folks, please understand that adoption of new specifications

you're correct in the end user environment (e.g. inventing new
features for web browsers). You're not correct in the administration
environment of DNS records. >98% of the DNS zone tables fall into
one of the two categories:

>80% of german domains could be updated within 24 hours.
- locally generated and maintained zone tables, but under
control of a good administration crew. It won't be much
work to understand what RMX is and how it works.
Once RMX could become running, I estimate that >70% of german domains

I know what I am talking about. I was working for the largest german
domain and web service provider, hosting the DNS tables for about
70% of german domains.
