WG Doc - Handling Encrypted DNS Server Redirection 20m (Tommy Jensen)

Q&A

- Ben Schwartz: loops are a misconfiguration and we don't need to specify what to do.  A client shouldn't completely bail out and fail DNS queries, but the configuration is invalid.
    - Tommy: should we upgrade SHOULD NOT to MUST NOT for deploying loops?
    - Ben: I guess so
    - In the case of A -> B -> C -> B then the client should use one of A, B or C
    - loop detection should be by name instead of IP address
    - Tommy: but the draft currently does by address since names may resolve to different IPs under geolocation
- Jim Reed: I'm not sure it's a good idea to say let's not do loops.  People will do stupid things all the time anyway.  Clients need to take appropriate action.
    - Tommy: are you saying we should we shouldn't specify a number to detect?
    - Jim: we should simply say clients must detect loops without specifying further
- Florian Obser: Clients should be told not to do a lot of work
- Lars Eggert: I might abort this chain at any point because you made me wait too long.  If we stop at the loop detection, then everything would land on B which doesn't spread the load properly.  Agree with Ben that clients should pick A, B, or C
- Ben: self redirction is how we represent end-of-chain.  It just needs to be clear
