I would like to propose an amendment to the definition "IP Address
Contact". Following the example of a "Domain Contact", for
consistency we should allow a CA to use the DNS SOA record as IP
Address Contact information.<br>
<br>
Current definition:<br>
<br>
<i><strong>IP Address Contact</strong></i><i>: The person(s) or
entity(ies) registered with an IP Address Registration Authority
as having the right to control how one or more IP Addresses are
used.</i><br>
<br>
Proposed new definition:<br>
<i><br>
</i><i><strong>IP Address Contact</strong></i><i>: The person(s) or
entity(ies) registered with an IP Address Registration Authority<font color="#ff0000"> or in a DNS SOA record</font> as having the
right to control how one or more IP Addresses are used.</i><br>
<br>
Are there any objections or concerns with this proposal?<br></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes.</div><div><br></div><div>IP Addresses do not have DNS SOA records. What you're proposing doesn't make sense (as specified).</div><div><br></div><div>It's also not clear to me the motivation of why. I'm hoping you can elaborate if there are more concrete arguments in favor other than "for consistency". For example, an explanation of use cases that are otherwise unmet without this change, particularly since it'll require careful language to ensure it does what I believe you're trying to do, but which is not yet specified to do so :) </div></div></div>
