Re: ZACR DNS Training Courses - September 2014

We hold two training sessions per year. They are around September and
February. The exact dates are dependant on other Internet meetings
around the world (Johan is from Sweden and involved in structures like
the IETF). Once mutual dates are established, I'll put them up on the
Website and announce appropriate information on this list.

Being involved with the DNSSEC program at ICANN:
Some people wonder about the value of DNSSEC. Apart from it securing the
lookup between names and numbers (etc) - it also secures the publication
of all other records - including TLSA.  The TLSA record is only valid if
"protected" by DNSSEC. It can provide a HASH of SSL Certificates.
In WEB use - this can confirm the authenticity of the SSL certificate
that the web provider uses. 
In Mail use (Postfix now, Exim soon) - it is used to signal that
TLS/(SSL*) is available and MUST be used, essentially encrypting the
path between SMTP speakers (MTA's). Add in Secure submission and secure
POP3/IMAP and E-Mail becomes secure end to end - no Man in the Middle.
