Section 2.1 of server-to-server API describes the usage of a _matrix._tcp SRV record to discover the service hostname and port. However the matrix service name is already registered for use with the MATRIX Remote AV Switching protocol, as per the Service Name and Transport Protocol Port Number Registry of IANA.

To avoid conflicts with existing infrastructure, Matrix s2s should use a different service name, examples could be matrix-server or matrix-org. Also, please make sure to register the new service name with the registry to avoid future conflicts.

our new service name is matrix-fed - to be turned into an MSC.

Port 8448 is registered under #1576
