Quoting Jim Reid <jim@rfc1035.com>:

Colleagues, a belated happy new year to you all and best wishes for 2011.

Hi Jim, best wishes to everyone as well.

Here are the draft minutes from the Rome meeting. Please let me know if there are any errors, inaccuracies or omissions.

A few minor points to mention, i the Reverse DNS Considerations for IPv6 section: - apart from Dave's mention of IRC as one application that mainly uses reverse DNS, one other I mentioned is eMail, with rDNS used in policies by mail admins - "On the subject of if putting a period between each HEX character would scale, Kostas said he had seen this happen in practice. Both speakers agreed that this all comes down to cost." I remember this conversation as a question I posed about whether a distributed rDNS large scale setup was used in practice by any Provider, using also Dynamic DNS updates and if this would scale. The audience co-speaker said that it would certainly scale since distribution is an essential DNS feature, but of course I also implied the operational costs involved and I guess we agreed. Regards, Kostas Zorbadelos
