> tom, the API for that typically doesn't support looking up SRV records and often doesn't support non-blocking lookups (you don't want the XMPP daemon to stop processing messages while it waits for DNS queries to return answers) So prosody is resolving dns txt records itself?

Martin: TXT records for what?

MattJ
We resolve SRV records

Martin
I meant srv records.

Then the answer is yes ✏

And by "resolving itself" that just means it builds the DNS query packet and sends it to whatever is in resolv.conf

Martin
Good 😃

MattJ
Building a recursive resolver is, like building a HTTP server, not in scope for the project
-
Martin
But you _have_ a http server 🤔

MattJ
Yeah, seems unavoidable, and people keep requesting new stuff for it
- Ge0rG shivers at memories of failed CNAME resolution and of prosody ignoring all the configured DNS servers after a while
