To me, the djbdns cache structure is the obvious design, and BIND's
continuing tree-related cache performance problems---all of which are
visible to clients on the wire---are obvious implementation bugs.

Do you think I should write drafts specifying my cache structure,
falsely label those drafts as ``clarifications,'' and pay a bunch of
people to push those drafts through the IETF standardization process?
