The point of the wildly over-engineered root key signing ceremony is to build trust by publicly demonstrating at every step there is no opportunity for intentional or accidental badness to occur without being noticed.
at some point, long passed, the more pomp, the less safe i feel. there is protecting against technical/engineering threats and protecting against layer 8 through 11. through complexity, it compromises the technical protection to go overboard on the lawyer defense. from this bottom feeder's pov, icann, verisign, doc, ... are too often the layer 8 through 11 threat than part of the engineering solution.
In any event, if you haven't already I would encourage you to provide comments at the URL Joe referenced.
definitely. after all, commenting on icann insanities has had such serious beneficial effect for the good of the internet in the past. randy
