DynUpd Testing
 o Insecure Dynamic Update being coordinated by map
 o Secure Dynamic Update being coordinated by Olafur
 o soliciting implementations, send mail to [email protected] or [email protected]
 o plan to run over the open internet
 o prefer authors
 o private mailing list
 o methodology being developed.  based on old mail to list
 o three insecure servers known: BIND, American Internet, Keio Univ (thinks
   it is complete)
 o some more clients
 o TIS is working on a secure server

Notify Testing
 o [email protected] is coordinating testing
 o in BIND 8.1.1 4.9.6, IBM OS/2 has notify
 o Andreas has a primary server
 o will write up methodology

IXFR Testing
 o Ohta-san coordinating testing, but too busy
 o implementations: IBM OS/2, MetaInfo on NT, possibly Inria too
 o no methodolgy yet, will write up

draft-ietf-dnsind-tsig-01.txt
 o making specification more strict
 o TCP connection support
 o included timer values included in digest
 o error generation model is now specified
 o will come out soon after dnssec release
 o Andreas has tsig-01, and will update to 02 version
 o secret exchange should be a separate draft
 o we should have a WG last call

draft-ietf-dnsind-ncache-04.txt
 o no one here to speak for it
 o it needs work, spec getting closer but language problems

draft-eastlake-kitchen-sink-02.txt
 o recent criticism regarding ASN.1 examples will be cleaned up
 o if too successful, there may be a problem of many parts of the type then
   returning too many data, might resolve by bucket hashing

draft-ietf-dnsind-test-tlds-01.txt
 o reserved names for testing and examples would be useful
 o some opinion that one is sufficient and english based ones might be ill
   advised
 o suggestion that we look at the ISO reserved list
 o suggest WG last call

draft-watson-dns-error-00.txt
 o ran out of RCODEs while doing tsig work
 o hence reserve one for indicating more error codes
 o need for more detail by some protocols, e.g. dynamic update also needs
   error detail
 o need a time indicator for when generator does not know what time it is

Domain name compression in new RR types
 o description of the problem
 o recommends that ranges of RR numbers for compressable and uncompressable
 o dnssec's NXT RR bitmap would make this difficult
 o alternative: new style compression which is local to the RR, not for the
   entire message

draft-eastlake-local-names-00.txt
 o see the draft
 o has been no significant objection
