It seems we have now the mandatory very-long-thread-with-a-lot-of-rant on the #IETF125 mailing list about https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-rescorla-anonymous-network/ and the possibility that it prevents us going to China (and may be other countries).

After a lively discussion on solutions to depend less on the #DNS root (obviously no consensus, despite a tendency to deny there is a problem to solve), another hot question: DNS #censorship and the need to be transparent about it. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-nottingham-dnsop-censorship-transparency/

What to display to the end user? (Not anything got from the resolver: security issues.) Lumen Database entry?

DNS Filtering Transparency

[I-D.ietf-dnsop-structured-dns-error] introduces structured error data for DNS responses that have been filtered. This specification allows more specific details of filtering incidents to be conveyed. Discussion Venues This note is to be removed before publishing as an RFC.

Another funny question. After Cisco broke because Cloudflare changed the order of DNS records in the answer (which is perfectly legitimate), should we mandate a specific order in #DNS?

History of PowerDNS: 2003-2013 - Bert Hubert's writings

This is part two of the PowerDNS history as I recall it. As noted in part one, some of this stuff is rather old, and it is entirely possible I am misremembering things. Please do let me know if you find any important omissions or mistakes! At the end of 2002, beginning of 2003, PowerDNS as a going concern was gone. There were no more employees, there were no paying customers.

Bert Hubert's writings
@bert_hubert Joe Abley said, indeed, that there are at least three documented cases, just for CNAME/A+AAAA order (see his slides).
