And that is how I would expect to see DNSCurve appear in IETF process.
It is a good piece of work but not final. I am not happy about
presenting work just to shoot it down.

What we want to do here is to produce a specification that essentially
fits into the same niche as DNSCurve but follows an IETF architectural
style rather than being hyperoptimized to one set of parameters.

DNSCurve was originally proposed to do a rather different job and it
is actually better at that job than DNSSEC in my opinion.

I would expect that anyone taking up DNSCurve and proposing it in this
forum would do what I did and use it as a starting point and make
modifications.
