The conversation between Thomas Steenholdt and Christian Decker revolves around clarifying the DNS Seed query semantics in BOLT10 specification. They address two issues - the intended direction of interpreting the conditions and the result of the conflict if a condition is specified multiple times. They use the example of r0.a2.n5.a4.n10.seed.example.com to illustrate their points. They assume a logical approach of interpreting from the seed root and "up the tree" for the first issue. For the second issue, they suggest replacing currently set conditions when encountering new conditions with the same key. This would allow easy addition of a condition to a query programmatically without limiting results. Thomas expresses willingness to help improve the BOLT10 specification and make a pull request for review. Christian welcomes any improvements to the specification.
