i wasn't reading this thread at all since i thought it was about discovering
policy, like the subject says. horror of horrors, it's about dns internals,
which means the thread is not only mislabelled, but also off-topic. i think
it could go to dnsop@ietf.org, namedroppers@ops.ietf.org, or perhaps even
dns-operations@lists.oarci.net. but it's a long way from being something
related to routers, and i think it should stop here.

i'm only one author, but in any case i ain't sayin', since this is nanog,
and my only purpose in joining this thread is to say "enough already!" if
you want to know what i think about SRV's "." rules, ask me in some forum
where it's on-topic.
