The IESG contact persons are Joel Jaeggli and Benoit Claise. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-delegation-trust-maintainance/ Technical Summary This document describes a method to allow DNS operators to more easily update DNSSEC Key Signing Keys using the DNS as communication channel. The technique described is aimed at delegations in which it is currently hard to move information from the child to parent. Working Group Summary During the cycle of this document, there was much discussion on this method not being the only method to update this information. There was debate that the WG should wait to see what the Registrars will do in communicating with gTLDs. There was rough consensus within the group, but also from the chairs, that each method can be described and documented in a RFC, if we felt the method would be deployed. There were many iterations during WGLC, but mostly surrounding the wording, An additional Appendix section was added. Document Quality The Document Shepherd did a thorough editorial and technical review of the document, and resolved any issues brought up during WGLC The Document Shepherd does not have any concerns about the depth or breath of the reviews. They were detailed and far ranging. Personnel Tim Wicinski is the Document Shepherd and Joel Jaeggli is the Responsible Area Director.
