Daniel-
I agree COMPLETELY.  We just need apps - and that is one of the main thrusts in 
my awareness efforts. 
What I meant by proofs is something more than suspicions re 1024RSA or papers 
pointing to weak links in a few chains.   -Rick

...
Do you really think we should prove anything to anyone? All we need to make 
DNSSEC a success is to build more applications/layers that cannot exist without 
it, such as DANE.

DANE is a good candidate, especially in light of the recent many reports on CA 
PKI failure for SSL. A very well known and understand problem in our community… 
but why is nobody speaking of it?

The CA people will lose that cash cow. The CIA types will lose the MITM 
abilities that the present situation provides. But this will happen sooner or 
later. ‘now’ is just as good time as ‘some day’.

Just my 0.02. Oh, and I am happy to see BG not mentioned :)

Daniel
