George,

> The politics response is really simple: "this idea is doomed." -I wish I felt otherwise, but I think given the context of the debate over ICANN, who 'owns' names, $180,000 application fees, IAB directions to IANA, NTIA role, this is mired.  I don't want to be a prophet of doom, but this is my honest perspecive.

As with most "really simple" answers, the reality is a bit more complicated.  My impression of this draft is that it creates a space that would avoid some of the risks associated with RFC 6761. Politically, I suspect this is desirable, even to all the parties you mention. As for the fee, ICANN already defers to the IETF in protocol-related matters, so I don't see why a new gTLD fee would be applicable.  With my ICANN hat on, I'll look into this and report what I hear back.

> Would it be DNSSEC signed with a well known key?

Sure, why not?
