A relevent question. Personally, I appreciate the fact that the
BIND-USERS mailling list and news group are tolerent of postings
that do not reflect direct BIND usage. We see any number of posts
for DNS services that are non-BIND, e.g. Microsoft DNS, djbdns,
and the occasional QIP, ciscoLD, and even UltraDNS statements.
In a fairly real sense, bind-users functions as the old namedroppers
mailing list worked.. a place to talk about the DNS, its operations,
and a breeding ground for discussion on needs for feature enhancement.
I am persuaded that djbDNS has its own support structure (maillist)
and this list is ostensibly strictly for BIND. But there is a need
for a forum to discuss DNS topics that is inclusive of all varients
and I don;t think we have one anymore. In its absence, bind-users
seems to have assumed that role.
Yes there are the IETF lists, but the seem to be oriented towards
protocol specific items.
