Keep the bridge - it's all yours.  Remember - in order to sell the bridge you first have to own it.  Your convenced you have something to sell.  I am not.

       You can disagree all you want but it doesn't change the
       fact that DNSSEC and DNSCurve both have chains of trusts.
       The proponents of DNSCurve even say this.

       Note the chain of trust as described on
       http://www.dnscurve.org/tld.html/.

The correct URL is http://www.dnscurve.org/tld.html not http://www.dnscurve.org/tld.html/

And yet again - it has nothing to do with chains of trust.  It does learn how to trust and whom to trust.  Thats part of the job.  What DNSCurve does do is it "adds link-level public-key protection to DNS packets" therefore guaranteeing the integrity of the packets end to end. 

Totally different from DNSSEC which indeed uses chains of trust - i.e. root to tld to sld etc.etc.

I am totally amazed at the propaganda that comes out of ISC these days.  When you guys start comparing DNSSEC to DNSCurve - we'll - all I can say is this - I have this really nice bridge on the Hudson I'd like to sell you that will compliment the bridge you've already have.
