I'm one of the authors on that and have set it aside for about a year now because I wasn't getting any help.  Some offers of help materialized this week, and I have high hopes that we'll be trying to get it rolling again.

That is great news.  I had to abandon work when family needs became priority and there was noone else shepherding and moving the work along.  All who were part of the meetings over a year ago at DNS-OARC and IETF was always greatly appreciated.  It just needed someone to be the lead and driver.

I'm aware of some ongoing discussions about what that might look like, including reducing or removing the dependence on protobufs.  That seems, to me, to be preliminary but I expect it'll make its way to public discussion before long.

Cool.  I still care although am now on sidelines (still have family as priority…..life events usurp volunteer work).  Nice to see this pick up.
