[RZERC] [Ext] Re: FOR REVIEW: RZERC Website

[Steve Sheng]

Thanks Duane, for the feedback. Yes, you are correct, that’s the current language from the charter. Other RZERC members have raised this before on clarifying / rewording that sentence in the charter. This is a good item for the RZERC scope discussion. I will add it to the agenda of the next meeting. 

For now, I would recommend we keep it in there. When the charter is revised, we can update the web page accordingly.  

Best
Steve

    Hi Steve,
    
    
    
    No comments on the format and look of the web site -- looks good to me.
    
    
    
    I think there are some lingering issues with the sentence that describes RZERC:
    
    
    
        The RZERC reviews proposed architectural changes to the content of the
    
        DNS root zone, the systems including both hardware and software
    
        components used in executing changes to the DNS root zone, and the
    
        mechanisms used for distribution of the DNS root zone.
    
    
    
    I know this is taken from the charter, which is fine.  I think this sentence could be worded a little better, and maybe we can fix it if/when we revise the charter.  My particular issues are with the word "content" in there and some ambiguity whether "proposed architectural changes" refers to all items in the list or only the first item.
    
    
    
    
    
    With respect to your question about how transparent RZERC should be, I'll spend some more time thinking about it and respond separately.

It is modeled after the CSC website.

Their teleconferences and mailing lists are open. We would like to add an agenda item for the next teleconference: “How open and transparent should the RZERC be?” Please share your thoughts on the list as well.
