I want to be perfectly clear: I did not say that; neither did I imply
it.  I don't know that I believe it.  The statement to which I think
you are referring was merely an attempt to focus the discussion opened
by my esteemed co-Chair, thereby to make sure that we stick to the
question of picking algorithm support levels _for DNSSEC_, and not in
general.  So I was pointing out a feature of DNSSEC that is different
from at least some other contexts.

For the record, I refuse to have a personal opinion one way or the
other on what the IESG should do with the draft in question.  I
believe the WG decided to support its publication, and in my capacity
as Chair I feel duty-bound to promote that support.  I am not the
shepherd for this document, however, and I have no stake in the
outcome.

Best,

A
