I just took a look at this document, and I think it is ready for publication as
an Experimental RFC.

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the

Abstract
This document describes how to use secure DNS to associate an S/MIME
user's certificate with the intended domain name, similar to the way
that DNS-Based Authentication of Named Entities (DANE), RFC 6698,
does for TLS.
