First, apologies for a meaningful and relevant Subject: header. :-)

Ralf, it’s not a question of how many resolving servers do and don’t use 
DNSSEC. It’s a question of how many clients that are behind them.

ISTR Geoff saying that quite a large proportion of the Internet relies on 
google’s or Comcast’s resolving servers. So if they were to deploy NSEC 
Aggressive Use, it should significantly reduce the crap query traffic going to 
the root.

That said, it would be good to get some data on this or model it somehow, say 
by using the DITL datasets. Any volunteers?
