(1) This RFC is being requested as Standards Track. This is
introducing a new DNS RRTYPE related to delegation records within a
parent zone.

This document specifies how a child zone in DNS can publish records
indicating to the parent zone to process and act on these records. It

Working Group Summary
Initially the WG attempting to combine this work with the
draft-ietf-dnsop-delegation-trust-maintainance document. However, it
became clearer they were two different approaches, and the request was
dropped.
Document Quality
Currently there are no implementations for the handling of this
RRType. It was implied that some of the public domain software
packages will deploy this, but have not so far.
We believe the reviews have been thorough and substantial.
