i don't.  i've been reading the spec recently and trying to catch up
on the contents of the recent nanog meeting that i was unable to
attend.  i've been a long-term sceptic of dns-sec due to the lack of
any movement on the issuing of a root key (and the multiple,
incompatible changes in the protocol itself), but this effort looks
interesting.
