Subject: Re: [ietf-provreg] References for Today's Host Object Discussion

Speaking as co-chair -


Hmmm.


I have been under the assumption that we were talking about 
provisioning domain names, yes, provreg is chartered to be more 
general but in the short term we've focused on domain names, hence 
the only DNS records would be NS's and glue for the time being.

Would excluding MX's (et.al.) be too shortsighted for our 
extensibility (E of EPP)?  Would only considering NS's and glue be 
sufficient for EPP 1.0?

In an attempt to focus the discussion, however, I'd lean towards 
restricting ourselves towards concentrating on the NS & glue case and 
not on the MX case.  (MX might not be the only one that could be 
added.)  It's not that I want to suffocate new ideas in the WG, but 
it is better to meet the original goal first before expanding the 
mission.
