Colleagues

Although draft-ietf-dnsop-dnssec-trust-history (the DNSSEC Trust Anchor History Service) is a working group item and the editor has received a number of private comments on it, there has actually been relatively little discussion of the draft on the list, either pre- or post-adoption. If the draft is to go forward, it must represent the consensus of the working group.  To show that, we need people to comment on it and to support it.

So, to gauge feeling and to trigger discussion, could the chairs please have your views on the following issues: 

1. Is the situation addressed by the draft - that of a validator that has been offline or that has missed an (emergency) rollover needing to reconfigure itself - a problem that needs to be solved?

2. If the answer to (1) is yes, is the idea of using DNS the best way to do it?

Thanks,

Stephen
