somewhere along the train my comment about dns got moved to 'just like
dnssec' (which I was intentionally not referring to, maybe I should
have used email as an example instead).  Then in this part of the
messages I think my DNS comment got moved into 'if you distribute the
rpki data via dns instead of up/down/left/right/a-b/a-b... the
repository -> cache protocol'.  I didn't mean it in that sense either
:(

I think somewhere 5-8 messages back Arturo's note that:
  1) hosted model is just a crutch
  2) hosted model isn't intended for everyone to use
  3) most large ISP or large operations groups are expected to run their own CA

coupled with eric's notes that:
  1) hosted seems fragile for lots of operations
  2) people should think long and hard about using the hosted model of
controlling their own fate

gets the general gist of my point: "If you use the hosted model you
are equivalently outsourcing your Mail/SMTP infrastructure to another
person, be sure you want to do that..."

apologies for the confusing example :(
