All DNS-related subjects and discussion topics are welcome although 
we're particularly keen to hear more about operational and security 
related experiences, best practices and practical advice; both for 
newcomers to the DNS arena and those who have been around for longer who 
want to learn more about new features and opportunities to improve 
resilience, security and privacy. (These topics we think will complement 
the usual high-quality data-based research submissions we always hope to 
receive!)

If you have something interesting to share with the community that lies 
outside of the focus above, please don't be put off - if it's good, 
we'll be happy to include it.

If you'd like to offer a talk, but are not quite sure what to pick, 
here's a non-exhaustive list of ideas:

 1. *Operations & Deployment*
      * Configuration management, deployment processes, and
        interoperability experiences.
      * Tools, tips, and making effective use of DNS software features.
 2. *Performance, Resilience & Scaling*
      * Provisioning, load-balancing, and planning for resilience.
      * DNS performance management, efficiency improvements, and metrics.
      * Monitoring infrastructure: log pipelines, analytics, and anomaly
        detection.
 3. *Security, Privacy & Policy*
      * DoS attacks, DNS abuse, DNSSEC signing and validation.
      * Privacy considerations, for example: encrypted transport, qname
        minimization, data anonymization.
      * Relevant global and regional policies, legislation, and compliance.
 4. *Research & Innovation*
      * Data-driven testing, measurement, and analysis.
      * New protocols, protocol extensions, and next-generation
        namespace management.
 5. *Lessons & Learnings*
      * Outage experiences, recovery stories, and cautionary tales
