Hello all,

As we know, Fedora-23 Alpha release has just been announced. Which means, most 
of the proposed features which are approved for F23 are in reasonably good 
shape for us to try out.

One of the proposed system wide change is to install and enable local DNSSEC 
validating resolver across Fedora variants.


   -> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Default_Local_DNS_Resolver

This features proposes to install unbound[1] DNSSEC resolver along with the 
dnssec-trigger[2] tool, which is used to dynamically configure the 'unbound' 
resolver. Upon successful setup, user would have the unbound[1] DNSSEC resolver 
listening on the 127.0.0.1:53 address. And the '/etc/resolv.conf' would point 
to this server as the designated 'nameserver' for the system.


Both unbound[1] & dnssec-trigger[2] packages are available in Fedora since 
long. And the proposed feature solution is known to work well for majority of 
the users. Currently work is in progress to ensure that the proposed feature 
works seamlessly well across all variants and addresses all use-cases for the 
Fedora users.


The feature has been approved for the upcoming F23 release; But we need 
affirmation from the individual working groups to install and enable this 
feature in the respective variants. 


  -> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1203950


The affirmation would enable us to include the 'dnssec-trigger' & 'unbound' 
packages in the respective Fedora kickstart files.

Could we please have your(cloud-WG) consent to enable this feature on the 
Fedora cloud variant?


If you have any concerns/comments/suggestions please let us know here.
