Resiliency of the *servers* (the rsync distributors of certs and ROAs)
is less important than in the DNS case, since the validating caches
can work standalone, without updating the data, for a long
time. (Although a document on timing issues, expiration, duration of
signatures, would be a good idea.)

Resiliency of the data is indeed critical. If a RIR, because of a
sofwtare bug or a hijack of its servers starts to serve bogus data, we
will have a problem.
