I purposely waited a week to see if anyone would venture an answer to
this query. From my perspective, as co-chair, the lack of an answer is
quite telling. To me, it indicates that the WG is still not sure where
it wants to go with this work. I would contend that the only consistent
view I have heard from everyone is that there is not a need to
authenticate or encrypt to the root servers. After that, I see a lack of
consensus on:

1. ADoT support at TLDs
2. ADoT support at parents for children doing ADoT

Granted, in most cases #1 is a degenerate case of #2.

Regards,
Brian
