do we need a meeting of the DNS TF ?

      I'm reluctant to drag this stuff (remaining in a state of being
      rare instead of well-done :-) into the DB-WG.  Maybe I'm a bit
      too proud about the DB-folks, but I've got the impression recently
      that we managed to get various things and proposals discussed up
      to a useful point (by different means and methods) and then just
      put the finishing touch on top during the DB-WG meeting.
      Quite to the contrary, the DNS (-object stuff) is (and has been)
      tossed around for more than a year now, if I recall correctly.
      Listening to Piet's emontional announcement, I get the feeling
      that the DNS folks still have to make up their minds, one way or
      the other... 
In the DNS-WG on that RIPE meeting it was decided that
the *sd and *ns attributes would change from mandatory
into optional. But as far as I know it was the DB-WG
that acted as showstopper becase they considered it
their task to accept/reject changes and they didn't
agree with these changes. Correct me if I'm wrong.

      If this indeed has happend, then a proposal for a changed object
      is welcome to be discussed within the DB-WG.
Go ahead and talk, talk, talk. But it should be clear
from my "emontional announcement" (which I consider
quite to the point rather than emotional) that as
far as I'm concerned it's far too late already for
changes in the Domain object, the object effectively
being dead because of it being unworkable and causing
only headaches to domain registrars.
