On the last call I offered to tweak E.3.4-A requirement and text to
be more generic. Overview below, with changes in brackets (eg [NEW
text /OLD text] or just [NEW text] for insertions.

3.4	Service Capacity
[E.3.4-A] Each RSO is expected to make all reasonable efforts to ensure
that sufficient capacity exists in their deployed infrastructure to
allow for substantial [fluctuations in traffic loads / flash
crowds or denial of service (DoS) attacks.]

[Some/Such] events [(such as software bugs, flash crowds, denial of
service or other attacks)] might present a significantly greater
[traffic/query] load than the observed steady state, and that abnormal
load should be accommodated, where possible and within reason, without
degradation of service to legitimate DNS clients.
 
Regards,
Robert
