Greetings Arvel,
(2) SSP record type (TXT vs. something new). Only 4 messages in
discussion, mostly saying "if you support TXT, don't bother with
anything else." Again, no clear consensus.
If a new RR can solve the wildcard issue and we feel that this is a
significant issue worth solving (or at least addressing) then perhaps
we should create a system that looks for a new RR first and failing
that, falls back to TXT.
As a guy who recommended TXT records earlier I could just as easily live
with a new record. What I am more concerned about is the amount of
complexity in the system. Going through both TXT *and* SSP records
seems like a recipe for synchronization problems and other nasties that
we could best do without. And I could easily be convinced by Peter Koch
that a new record just isn't that hard to get out there.
