The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Revised IANA Considerations for DNSSEC' (draft-ietf-dnsop-dnssec-iana-cons-05.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Domain Name System Operations Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Warren Kumari and Robert Wilton. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-dnssec-iana-cons/ Technical Summary This document changes the review requirements needed to get DNSSEC algorithms and resource records added to IANA registries. It updates RFC 6014 to include hash algorithms for DS records and NSEC3 parameters. It also updates RFC 5155 and RFC 6014, which have requirements for DNSSEC algorithms, and updates RFC 8624 to say that algorithms that are described in RFCs that are not on standards track are only at the "MAY" level of implementation recommendation. The rationale for these changes is to bring the requirements for DS records and for the hash algorithms used in NSEC3 in line with the requirements for all other DNSSEC algorithms. Working Group Summary There was a lot of debate and discussion when it was first introduced. There was a feeling that loosening the requirements on adding new DNSSEC algorithms would lead to algorithms not getting implemented, algorithms designed around national/"vanity" crypto, etc. This was resolved with some discussion. Document Quality The document changes the registration policy for an IANA registry, to better align with other registries. It is a process document and so there are no implementations, it is written appropriately for the intended audience, etc. Personnel Tim Wicinski is the DS Warren Kumari is RAD! (nope, still not old...)
