"The IAB, obviously, favors expedient deployment of DNSSEC in the DNS 
root.

In absence of such we understand that mechanisms such as DLV or the 
publication of lists with TLD trust anchors could aid deployment."

The IAB has previously explained the need for a unique DNS root (RFC 
2826);  is there an equivalent document explaining the IAB's perspective 
on DNSSEC deployment?

Requiring deployment of DNSSEC in the DNS root has the potential to run 
afoul of political and business issues that could prove to be stubbornly 
persistent.  Given this, a thoughtful examination of alternatives such as 
DLV or TLD trust anchors would be quite valuable. 

"However, the IAB does not support the establishment of a domain under 
.arpa combined with a request from the IETF to IANA to establish such a 
service as that would implicitly be based on the MOU between RFC3172."

While it is hard to find fault with the logic behind this conclusion, 
what we really need is a path forward that takes into account the 
political/business realities as well as the operational challenges 
for the affected parties.
