I think it would take a huge amount of effort to get RFC 2930 into an
acceptable state. It is ten years old and like many other DNSSEC drafts of
that vintage rather vague on details.

http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2930

This is really not much more than a RR format with a vague suggestion to use
GSSAPI.


I still need a ticket format to avoid a need for server side state.
