Indeed, in one of his messages, Keith Moore listed many "problems with
DNS" that were completely different in their origin. Almsot none were
protocol-related, most were operational but some were not even linked
to DNS operations, they were layer 8 and 9 issues (such as the
registrar transfer problem in ICANNland) and completely offtopic for
the IETF.
