Hi all,

This draft has risen from the deep...

It describes a technique that a number of DNS operators use to
surgically / tactically deal with DNSSEC validation failures, for
large-scale outages.

We believe that this is needed -- simply telling customers "This
doesn't work though us, but does work through
$non-validating-competitor because we are better" simply leads to
customers changing to $non-validating-competitor, or operator turning
off DNSSEC for everybody.

I know that there will be some philosophical objections / discussions on this...

Abstract:
   DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) is now entering widespread
   deployment.  However, domain signing tools and processes are not yet
   as mature and reliable as those for non-DNSSEC-related domain
   administration tools and processes.  Negative Trust Anchors
   (described in this document) can be used to mitigate DNSSEC
   validation failures.

   [ Editor note: This document was originally draft-livingood-negative-
   trust-anchors-07 - renamved at the request of the DNSOP chairs ]




Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission
until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
