Name: DELEG Capabilities

Description

DELEG is a method to advertise DNS nameserver capabilities and zone features to resolvers. The intent of the BoF is to discuss capabilities of DELEG, that is, the new facilities it provides, such as delegating DNSSEC management to operators (i.e. DELEG alias to SVCB containing a DS record), encrypted transports, etc, etc.

This BoF will help people outside the DNS ecosystem understand how this new form of delegation might affect their use of the DNS.

The DNSOP WG has limited its discussion of DELEG to just the basic operations and format; this BoF will cover a variety of extensions proposed by different communities.
