Hi,

Comments on categories:

I'm mostly ok with those in the PDF.  Some responses to some of the
other items below.

I think there's a difference between Internet-based security and other
things, but I'm trying to understand the difference in roles between
"security" and "police" or "investigators" in the physical world.
What's the additional dimension here that is not just an Internet user?

>   *   DNS technical specialists should also be considered as a category

Why?  I mean, I am one, so I'm not worried about the gap.  But what
specific thing about the DNS is related to RDS?  I'm not sure there is
one, except that for troubleshooting you must be able to have the
delegation data in the registry available to you (so you can tell if
there's a problem with the DNS data).

I think that's the "security" sub-bullet under "technical", right?

>   *   Consider adding a category for WHOIS software / service developer

The service developers are I think covered by registrars, unless by
this is meant people who develop services _using_ the whois.  So a
category for software developers who consume RDS data?

Best regards,

A
