Folks,
We all (or almost all) seem to be assuming that the DNS is the
place to put SSP stuff.
I just wanted to raise the question to see if that's a requirement
or just a near-accidental part of the current design proposals.
Let me suggest that it will become a requirement, but that considering it one,
now, is a mistake. In other words, use of DNS, or whatever, derives from
functional and operational needs, rather than being a core need, on its own.
In other words, we should be discussing 'requirements' in terms of semantic
functions or practices/reputation/etc services that are need, rather than the
details of the mechanisms that will be used to provide those services.
