Someone else has written the RFC draft - which see http://bit.ly/b5mFkV

Looks like Matthew Dempsky and OpenDNS have taken the lead here.

Now there is. OpenDNS support of DNScurve means over 20 billion DNS queries
per day. I think thats enough evidence to get cracking and write the code.

Were not seeing much of the same with DNSSEC.

per day at OpenDNS are DNScurve compatible.The traffic in DNSSEC is chicken
