Re: TXT lookup domain - eliminating redundancy.

On 4/15/04 4:02 PM, Hector Santos sent forth electrons to convey:

allow for the industry to use a simple TXT
domain lookup to see the entire scope of policies supported by a domain.
I also think this is a bad idea, as it makes it much easier for the DNS response to run into size barriers. Generally, DNS works best via UDP packets smaller than about 500 bytes, as has been dicussed here before. Multiple protocols (and multiple versions of a protocol) make these barriers loom large.
