Interested in a DNSSEC workshop at/near NANOG 20?

  • From: Edward Lewis

I have been asked whether there will be a DNSSEC (RFC 2535 & others)
workshop held in North America.  A brainstorming session came up with a
suggestion to hold it the day after the Washington, D.C. meeting of NANOG
(#20).

It was pointed out to me that most of the NANOG attendees were routing
folks, not DNS administraters/maintainers.  So, I'm sending this mail for
two reasons.

1) Would you plan to come to NANOG only if such a workshop were held?
(I.e., you read the list, but have no reason to attend meetings primarily
about routing.)

(Please forgive me it I am making a false stereotypical claim that NANOG
attendees are router folks...)

2) If you are interested in attending such a workshop, let me know in
private email.  I am not asking for registration, I need this to help us
size the workshop.

Here's a bit of what we have in mind for the workshop:

One full day, the Wednesday following NANOG.  Location will be in Northern
Virginia - exactly where will depend on demand.  There will be no cost to
attendees but you will have to provide your own computer (laptop) running
the latest version of BIND 9 (which is TBD), and other travel expenses.

When (if) registration is opened, it'll be FCFS, and attendence will be
limited.

BTW - what's in the workshop for the hosts is: more testing of the BIND
software, feedback on the (IETF) specifications, input to DNSSEC policy
BCP's.
