Technical Summary
This document defines a mapping of DNS messages into JSON;
it allows for conversion to and from the DNS binary message format.
It defines the expected JSON syntax for the common properties
within a DNS message, a mechanism for encoding binary data
without representation, and a common mechanism to specify
a query/response pair. The data format allows for future
extensibility, such as additional type-specific values.
