DNS Working Group

Charter

The DNS Working Group discusses current DNS related issues in technology and operations. The working group encourages deployment of DNS and DNS related protocol components by collecting experience and documenting current practice and recommendations. It therefore provides a mechanism for exchanging practical and operational experience with organisations like CENTR and the IETF.

The working group discusses DNS software implementations, especially security and scalability aspects as well as performance and interoperability considerations. DNS quality, and other factors that may affect the stability of the DNS system, are also discussed by the working group.

The DNS Working Group provides a forum for the registry and registrar community. It discusses the technical and operational issues arising from registration policies, with a specific focus on the deployment of new and emerging features.
