I disagree. DNSSEC is not just DNS: its the only available, deployed, and (mostly) accessible global PKI currently in existence which also includes a constrained path of trust which follows already established business relationships. Dynamic DNSSEC applications, where signatures are generated on the fly, are almost certainly going to be developed to utilize this infrastructure. -- Nicholas Weaver it is a tale, told by an idiot, nwea...@icsi.berkeley.edu full of sound and fury, 510-666-2903 .signifying nothing PGP: http://www1.icsi.berkeley.edu/~nweaver/data/nweaver_pub.asc
