With DANE, a new RFC, Kamailio will validate SSL certificates in a DNS-sec 
secured DNS zone. Feels good 
to be able to have control over the validation and get detailed error codes. 
And not have to trust an
external software for security validation.

We should still be able to use an external resolver, of course.
