draft-ietf-dnsext-dnssec-2535typecode-change-00.txt

[Sam Weiler <weiler@tislabs.com>]

A new version of the typecode draft has been published.

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dnsext-dnssec-2535typecode-change-00.txt

Changes since the last version:

   Suggested specific type codes and mnemonics.

   Clarified interactions between the old and new types.

   Reordered the document.  Added sections on incrementing the EDNS
   version number, doing nothing, and specific protocol changes, as
   well as an acknowledgements section.  Substantially rewrote the
   introduction.
