Hi Doug,

Since the host records are the interesting bit, we do absolutely need to make sure that we can sanity check them somehow. I'm not sure Chris' suggestion to essentially "vote" on which host records are the right ones based on the results returned from polling all the known addresses is the right solution.

Personally I would love to see the political drama around signing root-servers.net go away and have that zone signed already.

RSSAC 028 has a detailed analysis of various naming schemes for root name servers, along with their benefits and problems. One of those problems is that the dependency on .net can lead to failure of priming response validation, or even a node re-delegation attack against a resolver.

Anand
