    what is the security policy that isc plans to use over the
    content of the isc dlv registry?  and how will the dvl trust
    key roll-over and revocation be handled?
if the above can not be very clearly answered (by isc?), then this
proposal is techno-political hubris at best.
yes, or an interesting proof-of-concept that can be taken-up and
completed by someone else.

actually, i suspect that the issues of dlv are exactly those of
iana root signing, key management and tld signature policy.  and
hence dlv is hoisted on the same petard it attempts to avoid, and
then devolves to a simple power play of isc vs iana with neither
having a good answer to the real technical and security issues.
