Re: DNSCurve implementation

I run an authoritative managed DNS service. I've been contemplating
DNSCurve since the beginning of the project, but lack of real-world
implementations and use prevented doing so. However now with OpenDNS
rolling it out, there is a justification for rolling our own.

I haven't read the IETF draft, but in time we may roll this out.
However with DNSSEC already being rolled out it kind of tears us in
two different directions, but there isn't anything to say we don't do
both at some point.
