This Working Group did not meet
NOTE: This charter is a snapshot of the 59th IETF Meeting in Seoul, Korea. It may now be out-of-date.

This WG is focused on advancing the zone transfer, update and notify documents to Draft standard and on the rewrite of the DNSSEC proposed standard.
Issues surrounding the operation of DNS, recommendations concerning the configuration of DNS servers, and other issues with the use of the protocol are out of scope for this Working Group. These issues are considered in other venues, such as the DNS Operations Working Group.
The DNSEXT Working Group actually uses an additional mailing list for discussion of DNS Security related issues. This list is open to all:
Discussion: dnssec@cafax.se To Subscribe: dnssec-request@cafax.se Archive: http://www.cafax.se/dnssec/ and ftp://ftp.cafax.se/pub/archives/dnssec.list
The RFC2535bis document set is edited by a team that can be reached through dnssec-editors@east.isi.edu. This team is chartered with making editorial changes only, with all substantative changes discussed on the WG list. Only the document editors and working group chairs are on this list, an archive of the mailing list is available at: Archive: http://www.east.isi.edu/projects/DNSSEC
Specific work items are:
o Protocol clarifications and corrections for DNSSEC, initially these clarifications will be done as separate RFCs that will later be folded into a document that we refer to as the RFC 2535bis document standard. These include changes that simplify the operation of DNSSEC.
o Generate new specification documents of DNSSEC (the RFC 2535bis document set) that includes all changes to RFC2535. This includes the following RFCs 2931, 3007, 3008, 3090 and 3226 and a number of Internet Drafts including DS, AD-is-secure, Key Signing Flag, NSEC RDATA etc. Advance this document set through the standards process.
o Clarification of RFC1034/1035 relating to DNSEXT ongoing work. + Clarification of wildcard processing rules. + Case insensitivity rules clarification.
o After the work items above have been completed the working group will continue on reviewing the following existing proposed standard and examine if there is a possibility to progress them on the standards track.
+ RFC1995 (IXFR) to Draft standard. + RFC1996 (Notify) to Draft standard. + RFC2136bis (Dynamic Update) to Draft Standard. + RFC2181 (Clarify) to IESG for advancement to Draft Standard. + RFC2308 (Neg Caching) to Draft Standard. + RFC2671 (EDNS0) to Draft Standard. + RFC2672 (DNAME) to Draft Standard, or revision. + RFC2845 (TSIG)to Draft standard. + RFC2930 (TKEY) to Draft standard. + RFC3007 (Secure Update) to Draft standard. + RFC3645 GSS/TSIG to Draft Standard + RFC3??? AXFR clarify to Draft Standard.
o Foster the development of Link Local Multicast Name Resolution (LLMNR) standard. The WG has taken up this work since LLMNR it is very similar to the DNS protocol. LLMNR is targeted as proposed standard.
The lifetime of the group is set by the work items above but while these are ongoing the working group has additional tasks:
o Reviewing and providing recommendations about the specification, by other working groups, of RR types that do not require any special processing and that do not require any special naming conventions.
