All new gTLDs are required to be DNSSEC-signed. The requirement only
applies to the parent zone, unless registry policy dictates otherwise, so
we can expect many more DS records in the root but a similar DS rate for
2LDs to other gTLDs, likely to be less than 1%:

The older microwave radios were like this. 

Most other vendors just put a serial console on the product at 9600n8 to do a
basic config (power, channel, etc).
Not ALU.

The radio sets up a PPP connection on the serial port and that connects to a
windows laptop (XP sp1 or older, win2k works best).
Now do you think they use IP for this? nope!  ISO CLNS and ISIS to find the 
radio.
Only after these 5 things go right, may you fire up the java GUI that actually
talks to it.  After about 10 min, it should be up and might talk to it.
Now on the odd chance it does not work (shocking, right?), you get to trouble
shoot it.  Better break out the Italian to English dictionary, all the error
messages are in Italian.

Thankfully the IP routing development team does not have these issues.  Most
possess a good amount of clue.

In the evolution of the DAG I pointed out that both the DNSSEC and the
IPv6 requirements, as well as other SLA requirements, were
significantly in excess of those placed upon the legacy registries,
and assumed general value and availability with non-trivial cost to
entry operators, some of whom might not be capitalized by investors
with profit expectations similar to those that existed prior to the
catastrophic telecoms build-out and the millennial dotbomb collapse.

The v6-is-everywhere and the DNSSEC-greenfields advocates prevailed,
and of course, the SLA boggies remain elevated w.r.t. the legacy
registry operator obligations.

Sensible may be subject to cost-benefit analysis. I did .cat's
DNSSEC funnel request at the contracted party's insistence and I
thought it pure marketing. The .museum's DNSSEC funnel request must
have, under the it is necessary theory, produced demonstrable value
beyond the technical pleasure of its implementer.

Anyone care to advance evidence that either zone has been, not will
someday be, significantly improved by the adoption of DS records?
Evidence, not rhetoric, please.

 I'm reasonably sure that there are more than 50 service providers
 who are able to privide you with a connection that will do IPv6.

In this context the universe of 50 providers are registry service
providers, existing and entrant. Verisign, NeuStar, Afilias, CORE,
AusReg, ISC, ...

Your side won if you predicted in 2009, or even as late as 2011, that
there would be many many applicants, using very very few providers,
and none in awkward places. If you predicted that, you won on all
counts, v6 availability, density of available technical clue for
DNSSEC as the cheap box checks -- the real win was access to
investment capital and financial instruments, access to American or
equivalent legal and ancillary services, shared fate (still being
dickered) on insurance bundling and business continuity set-aside, the
business advantages offered by Verisign, NeuStar, Afilias, CORE,
AusReg, ISC, ...

Absent that it really doesn't matter if a light in the sky told you
that v6 was everywhere and free, or that DNSSEC was vital to
everything, and free too, or not.

I didn't predict it, so I lobbied under the assumption that very low
capitalizations would attempt to provide some locally needed name to
existing address mapping, and that signing the zone had little but
cosmetic effect unless there were resources within the zone offering a
greater return on attacker investment than any large, and unsigned
zone (and there still are some of those). I also tried to get ICANN's
attempt to provide Applicant Support to defer these non-essentials
for registry start-up, but that whole thing went south and the one
qualified application was disallowed because ... .ummah upset someone

I've read the IPv6 and DNSSEC parts of a lot of the applications,
including the ones that aren't backed by the familiar large
registries, and nobody had any great trouble doing DNSSEC or IPv6.

There are a couple of adequate DNSSEC toolkits for anyone who doesn't
want to buy a prefab system, and even though there are plenty of
places where IPv6 isn't available, the sensible thing to do (even for
large applicants) is to put the servers where the networks are.

When back at home, logging in to Y! involved additional authentication
steps and a mandatory password change.  Fair enough.  No sign of account
access from anywhere unusual. The password change event was sent to the
correct linked external accounts.

But then, a new and interesting barrage of mail started coming in,
indicating that, as suspected, the account associations were indeed being
effected without any involvement of myself.  

For instance:

Hi Vince,

We detected a login attempt with valid password to your Yahoo! account 
([munged by me, but not by Y!]) from an unrecognized device on Thu, Jul 4, 
2013 3:56 PM VET.

Location: Venezuela (IP=186.88.201.179)

Note: The location is based on information from your Internet service or 
wireless carrier provider.

Was this you? If so, you can disregard the rest of this email.

(This is interesting and, perhaps, encouraging -- that's one of the
cantv.net addresses I've recently seen in compromised Y! account spam
headers.)

I have never yet succeeded in contacting a live body at Y!.  Does anyone
know whether the lights are even on, let alone anybody being home?

  Well give that .com thingie is IPv6 accessable and has DNSSEC there
  is nothing we need to let you know.  And yes you can get IPv6
  everywhere if you want it.  Native IPv6 is a little bit harder but
  definitely not impossible nor more expensive.
 
 And this was true when the v6 and DEC requirements entered the DAG?

DS for COM was added added to the root zone in Feb 2011.  The process
of getting COM signed started a lot earlier well before the root
zone was signed and included ensuring the protocol worked for COM
sized zones.  But hey if you just look a when records are added to
zones you wouldn't see that.

Requiring new zones start at the standard you expect existing zones to
obtain is neither unexpected nor unreasonable. 

 Try again, and while you're inventing a better past, explain how
 everyone knew that it would take 6 revisions of the DAG and take until
 3Q2012 before an applicant could predict when capabilities could be
 scheduled.
 
 The one thing you've got going for you is that in 2009 no one knew
 that almost all of the nearly 2,000 applicants would be forced by
 higher technical and financial requirements to pick one of a universe
 of fewer than 50 service providers, or that nearly all of the
 developing economies would be excluded, or self-exclude, from
 attempting to apply. So the basic diversity assumption was wrong.
 
 Why are the people who don't follow the shitty process so full of
 confidence they have all the clue necessary?

  Probably because they don't think that new TLDs are particularly
  useful or valuable.

Oops, just a minute, gotta grab the popcorn and cooler for this
one...ok, proceed.
